Solution

The correct option is A 23
At the beginning, Jack had the whole pumpkin pie.

He gave total 26 part of the pumpkin pie to Sam and Ruth.

Part of the pumpkin pie left with him =126=6626

Concept: Only the numerators of both fractions are added or subtracted when two fractions with the same denominator are added or subtracted.
6626=626=46

46=2×22×3=23

Hence, 23 part of the pumpkin pie would be left for Jack.
