Question

Ann had 48 fliers to post around town. Last week, she posted 2/3 of them. This week, she posted 3/8 of the remaining fliers. How many fliers has she still not posted?

Answer 1

Ann had 48 fliers to post around town

Last week, she posted 2/3 of them

`48 * (2)/(3) = 32 \\`

Therefore, she should posted 32 fliers

This week, she posted 3/8 of the remaining fliers

`48 * (3)/(8) = 18 \\`

Therefore, she should posted 18 fliers

Total fliers she should post are (32+18)=50 fliers

She still did not post (50-48)= 2 fliers

2 fliers is the right answer.
