A) 2/5
B) 3/5 .

Ans: A .
Feedback: fSubtract fthe fquantity fof fwater fthe fclient fdrank f(15 foz) ffrom fthe ftotal
f available fquantity f(25 foz): f10 foz fremain. fTo fdetermine fta hb i reb . cpo om r/ t te isot f n fof fthe fwater fthat
remains, fcreate fa ffraction fby fdividing f10 foz f(remaining fportion) fby f25 foz f(total
