Answer

To find out how many stickers Vikas has left after giving some to his father and brother, we can follow these steps:

### Step 1: Calculate the number of stickers given to his father.
Vikas gave `3/8` of his stickers to his father.

To find out how many stickers that is, we calculate:
\[ \text{Stickers given to father} = \frac{3}{8} \times 128 \]

Calculating this:
\[ \frac{3}{8} \times 128 = \frac{3 \times 128}{8} = \frac{384}{8} = 48 \]
So, Vikas gave 48 stickers to his father.

### Step 2: Calculate the number of stickers given to his brother.
Vikas gave `1/4` of his stickers to his brother.

To find out how many stickers that is, we calculate:
\[ \text{Stickers given to brother} = \frac{1}{4} \times 128 \]

Calculating this:
\[ \frac{1}{4} \times 128 = \frac{128}{4} = 32 \]
So, Vikas gave 32 stickers to his brother.

### Step 3: Calculate the total number of stickers given away.
Now, we need to find the total number of stickers Vikas gave away:
\[ \text{Total stickers given away} = \text{Stickers given to father} + \text{Stickers given to brother} \]
\[ \text{Total stickers given away} = 48 + 32 = 80 \]

### Step 4: Calculate the number of stickers left with Vikas.
Finally, we subtract the total stickers given away from the original number of stickers:
\[ \text{Stickers left} = \text{Original stickers} - \text{Total stickers given away} \]
\[ \text{Stickers left} = 128 - 80 = 48 \]

So, Vikas has **48 stickers left**.
