Question

salvador sold hats during a weekend sporting event on Saturday salvador sold 4/7 of the total number of hats on Sunday he sold 1/4 of the total number of hats what fraction of the total number of hats was left over

Answer 1

To determine what fraction of the total number of hats was left over, we need to subtract the total fraction (7/7) from the hats sold:

$\begin{gathered} \frac{7}{7}-\frac{4}{7}-(\frac{1}{4}\cdot\frac{1.75}{1.75})=\frac{7}{7}-\frac{4}{7}-\frac{1.75}{7} \\ \text{Total hats left=}\frac{1.25}{7} \end{gathered}$
