(a) in February?
(b) in January and February ?

b. How many bags of rice were left unsold, by the end of February?

Kojo had 1800 bags of rice in stock for sale.

In January, he sold 2/3 of it.

=> Number of bag he sold in January: 1800 x 2/3 = 1200

=> The number of bags of rice left: 1800 - 1200 = 600

In February, he sold 3/4 of what was left.

=> Number of bag he sold in February: 600 x 3/4 =450

=> Total number of bags he sold in January and February:

1200 + 450 = 1650

=> The number of bags of rice left at the end of February: 600 - 450 = 150

Hope this helps!
