B. 3/5
C. 1/6
D. 1/8

Answer 1

Think about it.
One person is budgeted for 1/2 the time and another is budgeted for 1/3 the time.
So, the total for those people is 1/2 plus 1/3.
Can you add 1/2 plus 1/3?

Answer 2

yeah its 5/6 correct?

Answer 3

Correct.
And if the project is budgeted for 1 person, then the time remaining for the third person equals
1 - 5/6 = ???
