Question

Each month reema spends 1/3 of her salary, saves 3/8 of the reminder and the rest of the salary equally among her mother brother and sister what fraction of for salary does each of them receive? ​

Answer 1

Step by step explanation :

let the total salary be 1

Therefore, Reema spends 1/3 of her salary.

money spent by Reema = 1/3 *1

= 1/3

Reminder = 1- 1/3

= (3-1)/3

= 2/3

Savings = 3/8 × 2/3

= 1/4

Therefore each gets = 1/4 ÷3

= 1/4 × 1/3

= 1/12

Answer : Each gets 1/12

Answer 2

SOLUTION:-

Let her total money salary be 1

Money she spends = 1/3

Remaining salary = 1 - 1/3 = 2/3

Money she saves = 3/8 of remainder = 3/8 × 2/3 = 1/4

Money she spends on her family members = 1 - ( 1/3 + 1/4)

= 1 - ( 4/12 + 3/12)

= 1 - 7/12 = 5/12

So, 5/12 of her salary is spent evenly among her 3 family members.

So, each of them gets 1/3 of 5/12 of her salary.

So, our fraction is

1/3 × 5/12

Fraction = 5/36
