Answer:

5/12

Step-by-step explanation:

1/4 of the cakes is 60 divided by 4 which is 15. That goes to Helen

20 go to Sue

so far, he has given away 35 cakes out of the 60

he is left with 25 cakes

that is 25/60 which can be simplified to 5/12

The fraction of the 60 cakes left is 5/12

Total quantity of cakes = 60

Helen share = 1/4 of the total cake

= 1/4 × 60

= (1 × 60) / 4

= 60/4

Helen share = 15 cakes

Sue share = 20 cakes

Total cakes left = Total cakes - Helen share - sue share

= 60 - 15 - 20

=60 - 35

= 25 cakes

fraction of the 60 cakes left = 25/60

= 5/12

Therefore, the total cakes left is 5/12
