Fabian had 560 coins. He gave
58 of it to Luke and
45 of the remainder to Shannon. How many coins had he left?
Fraction of the coins left after giving to Luke
= 1 -
58 =
38 Fraction of the remaining coins left after giving to Shannon
= 1 -
45 =
15
Fraction of the coins left after giving to Luke and Shannon
= 38 x 15
= 340
Total number of coins = 40 u
40 u = 560
1 u = 560 ÷ 40 = 14
Number of coins left
= 3 u
= 3 x 14
= 42
