The fraction of the snack left in the bucket will be 13/36.

The fraction is defined as the division of the whole part into an equal number of parts.

Given that:

The amount consumed is:-

( 12/ 36 )+ (3 / 36 ) +( 8 / 36 ) = 23/36

So the amount left will be calculated as:-

Amount left = 1 - ( 23 / 36 )

Amount left = ( 36 - 23 ) / 36

Amount left = 13 / 36

Therefore fraction of the snack left in the bucket will be 13/36.
