Question

Simi found that 2/5 of the cake had been eaten by her son. She ate 1/3 of the remaining cake. Her brother ate 1/5 of the remaining cake. Find the portion of the remaining cake

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

Let total =50

Son's part =2/5of 50=20

Remaining =50-20=30

Her own part =30×1/3=10

Now

Remaining part =30-10=20

Brother's part=20×1/5=4

Hence

Remaining part =20-4=16
