Answer:
Leah has 15 stickers left.
Step-by-step explanation:
The total number of stickers that Leah had was 50. Leah gave 1/2 of the stickers to her sister. This means that the number of stickers that Leah gave to her sister was: 1/2 × 50 = 25 stickers
.
Of the amount left, she gave 2/5 to her brother. This means that the number of stickers that Leah her brother was
: 2/5 × 25 = 10 stickers
.
Therefore, the number of stickers that Leah have left for herself is
:
50 – (25 + 15)
= 50 – 35
= 15 stickers
I hope this helps you!
Have a great day! 🙂
