Given:
2/3 of the cake was cut and distributed
To find:
The remaining part
Solution:
The required part is 1/3.
We can obtain the part that remaining by deducting the amount cut and distributed from the whole.
We know that the total of all parts of the whole is equal to 1.
So, the total cake=1.
Now, 2/3 of this is cut and distributed.
Let the remaining part be X.
So, X+2/3=1.
On solving, we get
X+2/3=1
X=1-2/3
X=3/3-2/3
X=(3-2)/3
X=1/3
So, 1/3rd cake is remaining.
Therefore, the required part is 1/3.
