Carol spends 1/4 of her savings on a stereo and 2/3 less than she spent on the stereo for a television. What fraction of her savings did she spend on the stereo and television?	Pick one:
A) 1 / 4 B) 2 / 7 C) 5 / 12 D) 1 / 2 E) 7 / 12

Rationale: total savings = s amount spent on stereo = ( 1 / 4 ) s amount spent on television = ( 1 - 2 / 3 ) ( 1 / 4 ) s = ( 1 / 3 ) * ( 1 / 4 ) * s = ( 1 / 12 ) s ( stereo + tv ) / total savings = s ( 1 / 4 + 1 / 12 ) / s = 1 / 4 answer : a
Answer: A
