Question

If I sell ${\frac{4}{5}}^{th}$ part of $10$ apples, how many are left?

• A. $4$
• B. $5$
• C. $2$
• D. $8$

Answer 1

The correct option is C

$2$

$\frac{4}{5}$ of $10=\frac{4}{5}\times 10$
$=4\times 2$
$=8$
Therefore, ${\frac{4}{5}}^{th}$ of $10$ apples is $8$ apples.
Also, if out of $10$ apples, $8$ are sold, we are left with $(10-8)$ apples, i.e. $2$ apples.
