Answer:
I am going to write in short.
We create a fraction of how many pencils are used by each one of them.
so each one of them used 1/2 of the pencils.

Step-by-step explanation:
Ramesh:
Total pencils = 20
Used up pencils = 10
Fraction of pencils used =10/20= 1/2
Sheelu:
Total pencils = 50
Used up pencils = 25
Fraction of pencils used =25/50= 1/2
Jamaal:
Total pencils = 80
Used up pencils = 40
Fraction of pencils used =40/80 = 1/2
Hence, all three of them used up 1/2 the number of pencils they had.
hope it helps you
