Luis had 600 erasers. He gave
58 of it to Cody and
45 of the remainder to Sabrina. How many erasers had he left?
Fraction of the erasers left after giving to Cody
= 1 -
58 =
38 Fraction of the remaining erasers left after giving to Sabrina
= 1 -
45 =
15
Fraction of the erasers left after giving to Cody and Sabrina
= 38 x 15
= 340
Total number of erasers = 40 u
40 u = 600
1 u = 600 ÷ 40 = 15
Number of erasers left
= 3 u
= 3 x 15
= 45
