Question

Simon makes 30 cakes he gives 1/5 of the cakes to sali he gives 10 percent of the 30 cakes to jane what fraction of the 30 cakes does he have left

Answer 1

7/10

Explanation:

Cakes Simon gave to Sali = 30*1/5

= 6

Cakes Simon Gave to Jane = 30 * 1/10

= 3

Cakes left = 30 - (6-3)

= 21

21 cakes were left, so in terms of a fraction, it'd be 21/30, which can be reduced to 7/10

Hope this helps!
