Question

Ann had 48 fliers to post around town. Last week, she posted 2/3 of them. This week, she posted 3/8 of the remaining fliers. How many fliers has she still not posted?

Answer 1

Answer:

Ann had 48 fliers to post around town

Last week, she posted 2/3 of them

$48 \times \frac{2}{3} = 32$

Therefore, she should posted 32 fliers

This week, she posted 3/8 of the remaining fliers

$48 \times \frac{3}{8} = 18$

Therefore, she should posted 18 fliers

Total fliers she should post are (32+18)=50 fliers

She still did not post (50-48)= 2 fliers

2 fliers is the right answer.
