Answer 2

The answer is $\frac{3}{24} = \frac{1}{8}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Total almirahs = 8

Those containing Language books = 3

Those containing Science books = 3

Almirahs remaining $= 8 - (3+3)$ $= 8-6$ $= 2$

Thus, almirahs containing Mathematics books = 1

So, the fraction of almirahs containing Mathematics books $= \frac{1}{ 8}$

If we see carefully, then option b) 3/24, on simplification, will give the term 1/8.
