    A)  \[\frac{2}{5}\text{  kg}\]                   

    B)  \[\frac{4}{5}\text{ kg}\]        

    C)    \[\frac{1}{10}\text{ kg}\]      

    D)    \[\frac{3}{10}\text{ kg}\]

    Correct Answer: D

    Solution :

    Total quantity of peanuts = 1 kg Fraction of peanuts eaten = \[\frac{2}{5}\] kg Fraction of peanuts given away = \[\frac{3}{10}\] kg \[\therefore \] Quantity of peanuts left             \[=-\left( \frac{2}{5}+\frac{3}{10} \right)\text{ kg =}\frac{3}{10}\text{ kg}\]
