Anu gave her two brothers 2/10 and 4/10 of the marbles she had. What fraction of the
total did she gave away ? What part of fraction was left over with her ?
Answers
Since 2 out of 10 marbles were given
Therefore, Anu had 10marbles
2/10 when turned to it's lowest form becomes 1/5 and 4/10 when turned to it's lowest form becomes 2/5, whose addition gives us 3/5
Since 3/5th of the marbles was given away
Therefore 3/5 of 10
=3/5×10
=6
Now,
Out if 10,Anu gave away 6 marbles
Therefore Anu was left with 4 marbles. [10-6=4]
