• A chocolate has 12 equal pieces. Manju gave $$\Large \frac{1}{4}$$th of it to Anju, $$\Large \frac{1}{3}$$rd of it to Sujata and $$\Large \frac{1}{6}$$th of it to Fiza. The number of pieces of chocolate left with Manju is
 A) 1 B) 2 C) 3 D) 4

 C) 3

The number of pieces of chocolate with Maniu

= $$\Large 1 - \left(\frac{1}{4}+\frac{1}{3}+\frac{1}{6}\right)$$

= $$\Large 1 - \left(\frac{3 + 4 + 2}{12}\right)$$

= $$\Large 1 - \frac{9}{12} = \frac{12 - 9}{12} = \frac{3}{12}$$

Hence, number of pieces of chocolate left with Manju is 3.
