Answer:

A) Second, as 3/8 is larger than 1/3.

B) 7/24

Step-by-step explanation:

3/8 put as a decimal is 0.375. 1/3 is 0.3333 which means that 3/8 is greater than 1/3.

9/24 is another way to write 3/8. 8/24 is another way to write 1/3. 9 + 8 is 17. 17/24 has been eaten. Therefore, 7/24 remains.
