Answer:
4/8 or 1/2
Explanation:
Priya has 8 apples. So we convert all of them into a whole unit, ie, 1.
So, on Monday, Priya ate 1/8 of her apples.
So, the remaining apples are
1 - 1/8 = (8 - 1)/8 = 7/8.
On Tuesday and Wednesday, she ate 3/8 of the remaining.
So, 7/8 - 3/8 = (7-3)/8
= 4/8, which can be further reduced to
= 1/2.
Thanks and have a great day! :))
