Question

saima has some chocolates. she gives 1/16 to sana and 1/8 of them to sonia. what fraction of chocolates does saima have left.​

Answer 1

Answer:

Saima has (16x - 3/16) fraction of chocolate left.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the no. of chocolates Saima has, be x.

Amount of chocolate shared with Sana = 1/16

Amount of chocolate shared with Sonia = 1/8

•°• Amount of chocolate left with Saima

= x - (1/8 + 1/16)

= x - [(2 + 1)/16]

= x - 3/16

= (16x - 3)/16

Hence, Saima has (16x - 3/16) fraction of chocolate left.
