The fraction of the total number of marbles is left in the bag after removing and giving part to her friend is 3/8

Fraction

let

  • Number of marbles in her bag = x
  • Number of marbles removed from her bag = 1/2x

Remaining marbles = x - 1/2x

= (2x-x) / 2

= x/2

= 1/2x

Number of marbles given to her friend = 1/4 of 1/2x

= 1/4 × 1/2x

= 1/8x

Number of marbles left in the bag = Remaining marbles - Number of marbles given to her friend

= 1/2x - 1/8x

= (4x-x) / 8

= 3x/8

= 3/8x
