Solution

To find out how much more homo milk was used than skim milk, you need to subtract the amount of skim milk used from the amount of homo milk used.

The amount of homo milk used was 9/10 of a carton. The amount of skim milk used was 1/2 of a carton.

So, subtract 1/2 from 9/10:

9/10 - 1/2 = 18/20 - 10/20 = 8/20

Simplify the fraction 8/20 to 2/5.

So, Abby's Coffee Shop used 2/5 more cartons of homo milk than skim milk.
