Answer 1

Answer:

1/8

Step-by-step explanation:

If you add 1/3 +1/8 to get the housing this year you get 11/24 then add that by 1/3 and 1/4 and you will get 25/24 or 1 1/24 then you add last year 1/3+1/4+1/3 and get 22/24 at last you subtract 25/24 by 22/24 and get 3/24 which equals to 1/8 I hope this helps
