Sagot :

Answer:

5/12, $10

Step-by-step explanation:

Lea earned $24 babysitting. She spent ⅔ of that amount on a gift for her bestie, ¼ on snacks. What fraction of her earning is left? How much money does she have left?

Let the total amount earned be 1

Given

Amount on snacks = ¼

Amount on babysitting = ⅔

Required

Fraction left

Fraction left = Total -(snacks+babysitting)

Fraction left = 1-(1/4+2/3)

Fraction left = 1-(3+4/12)

Fraction left = 1-7/12

Fraction left = 5/12

Amount of money she has left = 5/12 × 24 = 5×2 = $10

Hence she has $10 left
