Answer: the fraction of her paycheck that she deposited in each account is 1/12
Step-by-step explanation:
Mrs. Pens spent 1/3 of her paycheck on her grooves and household goods and paid bills with 5/12 of the pay check. It means that the total amount that she spent is
1/3 + 5/12 = 9/12
The amount of money she has left would be
1 - 9/12 = 3/12
She then deposited the rest of the money equally in 3 accounts. Therefore, the fraction of her paycheck that she deposited in each account is
3/12 ÷ 3
= 3/12 × 1/3
= 1/12
