A class of pupils were asked about how they travelled to school on a particular day. 1/6 of the pupils were driven to school in a car. 2/5 of the pupils took the bus. The rest of the pupils walked to school. Calculate the fraction of pupils who walk

The total amount of student would be represented by 1 or 100%. The pupils are split into three categories meaning the total must add up to 1. Therefore to find the remaining pupils who walked to school we simply have to compute1-1/6-2/5
