Ritu ate 4/7 part of an apple and the remaining apple was eaten by her...
Given: Ritu ate 3/5 part of an apple.
To find: How much part of the apple did Somu eat?
Solution:
Let's assume the total apple to be 1 whole unit.
Ritu ate 3/5 part of the apple, which means the remaining part left is 2/5.
Now, we have to find how much part of the apple was eaten by Somu.
As we know that the whole apple is equal to 1 unit, we can subtract the part eaten by Ritu from 1 to get the remaining part of the apple.
1 - 3/5 = 2/5
So, the remaining part of the apple left after Ritu ate is 2/5.
And, this remaining part was eaten by Somu.
Therefore, Somu ate 2/5 part of the apple.
Hence, the correct option is (c) 2/5.
