Answer:

(1/3) weeks worth of pay.

Explanation:

Keith has 3(1/12) weeks worth of pay in a wallet.

Keith has 3(5/12) weeks worth of pay in the bank.

How many more weeks of pay is in Keith's bank than Keith's wallet?

The number of weeks more of pay in Keith's bank than Keith's wallet

= (Number of weeks worth of pay in the bank) - (Number of weeks worth of pay in the wallet)

= 3(5/12) - 3(1/12)

= (4/12) = (1/3) weeks worth of pay.

Hope this Helps!!!
