Answer: 4/12 or 1/3

Step-by-step explanation:

A whole cake is 12/12.

He gave away 1/12, 5/12, and 2/12s of the cake

1+5+2 = 8

So he gave out 8/12s of the cake, which means he has 4/12 left, or 1/3 if you want simplest form.

Hope this helps.

aleksandrvk [35]
I believe there is a 1/20 chance that Mrs. Galvan will pick a black pin. Since there are 20 pens, each pen has an equal chance of getting picked. For example, you have 2 pens and one of them is blue. The chance of me getting the blue pen is 1/2 or a 50% chance. So your answer will be 1/20 chance.
