    Charli,

    First find what 1/4 of 2/3 is.

    1/4 of 2/3 = 1/6

    (That is 1/4 times 2/3 = 1/6)

    So, the bottle was 2/3 full, it is now ...

    2/3 - 1/6

    =4/6 - 1/6

    = 3/6 or 1/2 full.

    We know that the bottle of soft drink has a remaining volume which is 2 / 3 of the original.

    Since Jack drank 1 / 4 of the remaining volume, hence only 3 / 4 now finally remains, the total is:

    (2 / 3) * (3 / 4) = 6 / 12 = 1 / 2

    Hence the bottle is now one half full
