Answer 1

Answer:

he has 16 of his land

Step-by-step explanation:

A man sold 1/2 of his land. He gave 1/2 of the remaining portion to his son and 1/3 of the remaining to his daughter. What fraction of his land is left with him?

After selling his land he had  12  of the land left (in the beginning he had  1  and he gave  12  so  1−12=12 ).

Now of this half he gave half to his son. So how much did his son got from the original land?  14  ( 12⋅12=14 ) that leaves himself with  14  and from this he gave  13  to his daughter so she got  112  ( 14⋅13 ) of the original land and now he has  14−112=312−112=212=16 .

He has  16  of his land left.
