kofi spent 2/5 of his pocket money on snacks and 1/5 of the reminder on transport, what fraction of his money is left?

He spent 2/5th leaving 3/5th but then spent 1/5of 3/5th, which is (1/5)(3/5) so he spent 3/15th. So he has 3/5 - the 3/15 he spent : )

3/5 - 3/15 = ...

(1/5 * 3/5) + 2/5 = ?

To find out the fraction of Kofi's money that is left, we need to subtract the amounts he spent on snacks and transport from his total amount of pocket money.

Given that Kofi spent 2/5 of his pocket money on snacks, this means he has 3/5 of his pocket money remaining (since 5/5 - 2/5 = 3/5).

Next, Kofi spent 1/5 of the remaining money on transport. To calculate the fraction of money left, we subtract the transport amount from the remaining 3/5 of his pocket money.

3/5 - 1/5 = 2/5 of his pocket money is left.

Therefore, 2/5 is the fraction of Kofi's money that is left.
