200 cans of food were distributed to 3 charity homes. 2/5 of the cans were given to the first home, 1/3 of the remainder to the second home and the rest to the third home. How many cans did the third home receive?

Answer 1

2/5 = 6/15
1/3 = 5/15

15/15 - 11/15 = 4/15

4/15 * 200 = ?

Answer 2

(2/5)x200=80
So the first charity got 80
200 - 80 = 120 which is left.
120x(1/3)=40
The second charity received 40 cans.
so 120-40 = 80 cans left to give to the third home.
