Question

You took 1/4 ribbon of total red ribbon and your brother took 2/7 part of your ribbon. What will be remaining part of ribbon of yours?

Answer 1

Answer:

Remaining part of ribbon of yours = 5x / 28x  = 5/28

Step-by-step explanation:

Let say Total Part  = 28x

you took 1/4 part of total   = (1/4) 28x  = 7x

your brother took 2/7 part of your ribbon.  = (2/7) 7x  =  2x

remaining part of ribbon of yours = 7x - 2x  = 5x

Therefore, remaining part of ribbon of yours = 5x / 28x  = 5/28
