Meghan has a sack containing 60 chocolate pumpkins. she gives 1/3 to Kristen and 3/8 of the remaining to Aidan. She gives 3/5 of the remaining to Liam. How many does she have left?

Chocolate for Kristen = 1/3 * 60 = 20

Chocolate for Aidan = 3/8 * 60 = 22.5

Now, remaining = 60-(20+22.5) = 60-42.5 = 17.5

Chocolate to liam = 17.5 * 3/5 = 10.5

So, chocolate left for Meghan = 17.5-10.5 = 7
