⠀⠀⠀⠀

Total number of sweets = 48

⠀⠀⠀⠀

Sweets he gave to jai =15

⠀⠀⠀⠀

Sweets left = 48 - 15

⠀⠀⠀⠀

Sweets left = 33

⠀⠀⠀⠀

Now ;

⠀⠀

Total sweets = 33

⠀⠀⠀⠀

sweets he gave to Dhruv = 13

⠀⠀⠀⠀

sweets left = 33 - 13

⠀⠀

sweets left = 20

⠀⠀⠀⠀

$\sf{\red{\boxed{\bold{Required\: fraction= \dfrac{Sweets\: left}{Total\: sweets}}}}}$

⠀⠀⠀⠀

$\sf:\implies\:{\bold{ Required\: fraction = \dfrac{ 20}{48}}}$

⠀⠀⠀⠀

$\sf:\implies\:{\bold{ Required\: fraction = \dfrac{ 10}{24}}}$

⠀⠀⠀⠀

$\sf:\implies\:{\bold{ Required\: fraction = \dfrac{5}{17}}}$
