Angela has a collection of 24 pieces of rare action figures. She sold off a quarter of them at the pawnshop and gave one-third of the remainder to her daughter. How many does she have left?
A step-by-step solution is:
12
One - quarter of 24 action figures is 24 * (1 / 4) = 6.

She sold off 6 action figures so she has 24 - 6 = 18 left.

One - third of 18 is 18 * (1 / 3) = 6.

She gave out 6 so she has 18 - 6 = 12 left.

.

The answer is 12
