Question

6. A man sold half of his land. He gave 1/3 of remaining to his son and 1/4 of the balance to his daughter. What fraction of his land is now left
with him?​

Answer 1

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

man sold 1/2 of his land

the remaining part = 1-1/2= 1/2

he gives 1/3 of his son and 1/4 his daughter

total land = 1/3 + 1/4 = 7/12

total land according to 1/2 land

= 1/2 ×7/12 = 7/24

remaining land = 1/2 - 7/24

5/24 part
