Answer:

C. 5/24

Explanation:

John = 3/8

Tim = 1/3

Kevon = ?

---------------------------------

3/8 = 0.375

1/3 = 0.333

0.375 + 0.333 = 0.708

0.292 is left

---------------------------------

5/8 = 0.625 - wrong

9/24 = 0.375 - wrong

5/24 = 0.208333 = 0.293

10/24 = 0.416667 - wrong

---------------------------------
