Question

Tamia watched 1 2 of a movie in the morning, and she watched some more at night. By the end of the day, she still had 1 3 of the movie left to watch. How much of the movie did Tamia watch at

Answer 1

Answer: Tamiya watched
`\frac16` of the movie at night.

Explanation:

Let x = part of movie watched at night.

Given : Tanya watched
`\frac12` of movie in the morning.

Part left to watch =
`\frac13`

As per given, we have

`\frac12+x+\frac13=1\\\\\Rightarrow\ x=1-\frac13-\frac12\\\\\Rightarrow\ x=(6-2-3)/(6)\\\\\Rightarrow\ x=\frac16`

Hence, Tamiya watched
`\frac16` of the movie at night.
