Answer:

32

Step-by-step explanation:

1/3 of 60 is 20, so 60-20=40.

1/5 of 40 is 8, so 40-8=32.

What I did to solve this was I tried to find a common denominator between 1/3 and 1/5 by multiplying them to add to 15 so I had 1/3 = 5/15 and 1/5 = 3/15 an added them together which added to 8/15 so what was left over from that would be 7/15

I divided 8/15 by 60 and subtract the result from 60 which led me to 32-60=28
