Step 2 : Find LCM and change the fractions
Step 3 : Subtract the remaining values from the whole
Step 4 : You got the answer!
Applying these steps in the given question:
Step 1 : Cake given to geetha = 1 / 3
Cake given to Vidya = 2 / 5
Cake given to Madhu = x
Step 2 : 1 / 3 , 2 / 5
LCM of 3 , 5 = 15
( 1 * 5 ) / ( 3 * 5 ) , ( 2 * 3 ) / ( 5 * 3 )
5 / 15 , 6 / 15
Step 3 : ( 6 / 15 ) + ( 10 / 15 ) + x = 1
16 / 15 + x = 15 / 15
x = ( 15 / 15 ) - ( 11 / 15 )
x = ( 15 - 11 ) / 15
x = 4 / 15
Step 4 : 4 / 15 fraction of cake was given to Madhu
