Farookh cuts an apple into 12 equal pieces and gives 5 pieces to his best frien

Question

Farookh cuts an apple into 12 equal pieces and gives 5 pieces to his best friend. If he eats 4 pieces, what part of the apple is left with Farookh?

Options:

A . 0.20

B . 0.25

C . 0.15

D . 0.30

Answer: Option B
:
B

Farookh eats 4 pieces of the apple and gives 5 pieces to his friend.

∴ Total pieces of apple eaten = \frac{5}{12} + \frac{4}{12} = \frac{9}{12} Remaining pieces = 1 - \frac{9}{12} = \frac{12 - 9}{12} = \frac{3}{12} (Reducing by common factor) = \frac{3 \div 3}{12 \div 3} = \frac{1}{4} Multiply by 25 (both numerator and denominator) = \frac{1 \times 25}{4 \times 25} = \frac{25}{100} = 0.25
