What does a tetrahedral void in a crystal represent?

In a compound $AB_2O_4$,the oxide ions form a cubic close-packed $(CCP)$ lattice. The molar ratio of trivalent cations to bivalent cations is $2:1$. If all the bivalent ions occupy octahedral voids and trivalent ions occupy both tetrahedral and octahedral voids in equal numbers,then the fraction of octahedral voids that remain unoccupied is:
