on the first day 1/3 of the water a full tank was used 1/6 on the second day and 3/8 on third day . what was the fraction of the tank had water after third day

Answer 1

1/8

Explanation:

1st day......1/3

2nd day....1/6

3rd day....3/8

common denominator of 24

1/3 + 1/6 + 3/8 = 8/24 + 4/24 + 9/24 = 21/24 (this is water used)

that means that : (24/24 - 21/24) = 3/24 reduces to 1/8 .....water in the tank
