Tapas, Avi and Rishi shared a cake. Tapas had 1/2 of it, Rishi had 1/3 of it and Avi had the rest. What was Avi’s share of the cake? Correct Answer 1/6

GIVEN:

Tapas part in cake = 1/2

Rishi part in cake = 1/3

FORMULA USED:

Part of Avi = 1 – Part of Tapas – Part of Rishi

CALCULATION:

Let the total cake be 1 unit.

Tapas = 1/2

Rishi = 1/3

⇒ Avi = 1 – 1/2 – 1/3 = 1/6

∴ Avi's share of cake = 1/6
