Answer: See explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

Number of marbles = 400

Anthony sells 1/4 of the marbles to Jayveon. This will be:

= 1/4 × 400

= 100 marbles

Anthony gives 10% to Abdul. Abdul will have:

= 10% × 400

= 0.1 × 400

= 40 marbles

He gave 10 marbles to his little brother.

The number of marbles that Anthony has left will be:

= 400 - (100 + 40 + 10)

= 400 - 150

= 250 marbles
