Meenu spent 3/4 of her pocket money. She spend1/4 of it on the book 1/6 on a movie and rest for a dress . What part of her pocket money did she spend on the dress
To find out what part of her pocket money Meenu spent on the dress, we need to determine the fractions of her pocket money she spent on the book and the movie first.
Given that Meenu spent 3/4 of her pocket money, we can subtract this amount from 1 to find the fraction of her pocket money she did not spend.
So, 1 - 3/4 = 1/4 is the fraction of her pocket money remaining after the book and movie expenses.
Next, Meenu spent 1/4 of her pocket money on the book. To find out how much she spent on the book, we multiply 1/4 with the remaining fraction:
1/4 * 1/4 = 1/16
Therefore, Meenu spent 1/16 of her pocket money on the book.
Similarly, she spent 1/6 of her pocket money on the movie. Multiplying this with the remaining fraction:
1/6 * 1/4 = 1/24
Hence, Meenu spent 1/24 of her pocket money on the movie.
To determine the part of her pocket money she spent on the dress, we add the fractions she spent on the book and movie to find the remaining fraction:
1/16 + 1/24 = 5/48
Therefore, Meenu spent 5/48 of her pocket money on the dress.
