Step-by-step solution

6 steps
  1. Identify the total number of friends Preeti invited.

    Preeti invited 8 friends.

  2. Identify the number of friends who came to the party.

    5 friends came.

  3. Subtract the number of friends who came from the total number invited to find how many did not come.

    8−5=38 - 5 = 3

    3 friends did not come to the party.

    The number of friends who did not come is:

    3 friends\boxed{\text{3 friends}}
  4. Identify the initial number of fish Jitesh had in his aquarium.

    Jitesh had 15 fish.

  5. Identify the number of fish that died.

    5 fish died.

  6. Subtract the number of fish that died from the initial number to find how many are left.

    15−5=1015 - 5 = 10

    Jitesh has 10 fish left in his aquarium.

    The number of fish left in Jitesh's aquarium is:

    10 fish\boxed{\text{10 fish}}
