hlo

your answer is here !

Step-by-step explanation:

If each rack consist of 10 boxes of chalk stick, then the total number of the box on 4 racks will be

4X 10 = 40

Now, the second part is 10 of the boxes are in use which means that the total amount of box left is= 40 – 10 = 30.

Now the fraction will be

Remained/ total = 30/ 40 = 3 / 4 is the fraction remain in the rack

Answer 2

Answer:3/4

Step-by-step explanation: There are four racks with 10 boxes of chalk stick.

In a given day 10 boxes of chalk stick are in use.

So, according to the question

1 rack = 10 boxes of chalk stick

4 racks = 40 chalk boxes

Boxes of chalk used in a day = 10 boxes =1 rack

So, the fraction of chalk that remains in the rack is 40/40 - 10/40 = 30/40

(Cancel the zeroes)

The answer you wil get is 3/4.
