    Answer: 1/12 apples left

    Step-by-step explanation:

    Find the least common multiple (LCM)

    8: 8, 16, 24, 32, and so on

    6: 6, 12, 18, 24, and so on

    Both denominators have a common multiple of 24, so let's use that as the LCM

    Whatever you do the denominator, you must do to the numerator, and vice versa.

    6*4=24, so you have to multiply 4 to the numerator

    4*4=16, so the fraction is 16/24

    Then do it for the next fraction

    8*3=24, so do 6*3=18

    18/24

    Then subtract them

    18/24 - 16/24 = 2/24

    Then simplify and you get 1/12
