Final answer:
Mrs. Artia gives away one fourth of her 20 pencils, which is 5 pencils to Bharati. After giving them away, she has 15 pencils remaining.
Step-by-step explanation:
In this problem, Mrs. Artia initially has 20 pencils. She gives away one fourth of those pencils to Bharati. To calculate how many pencils Bharati gets, we need to divide the total number of pencils, which is 20, by 4 (since she is giving away a fourth). So, Bharati receives 20/4 = 5 pencils.
To determine how many pencils Mrs. Artia still has, we subtract the number of pencils she gave away from her original total. Thus, Mrs. Artia has 20 - 5 = 15 pencils left.
