Question

Luigi spent 5/7 of his money on books. He spent 2/5 of his money on pens. What fraction of his money was left? ​

Answer 1

Answer:

Therefore, no money was left with him.

Step-by-step explanation:

5/7 of money on BOOKS

2/5 of money on PENS

Total money = 1

Therefore, money left = 1 - (5/7+2/5)

or, money left = 1 - (25/35+14/35)

or, money left = 1 - 39/35

or, money left = 35/35 - 39/35

or, money left = (- 3/35)

Therefore, no money was left with him.
