Answer 1

Question:

Winton was given $14 to spend at a school fair he spent 3/7 playing games how much money is left

Answer:

Amount left with winton is $ 8

Solution:

Given that Winton was given $14 to spend at a school fair

He spent $\frac{3}{7}$ playing games

To find: money left with Winton

From given information,

Money given to Winton = $ 14

Amount spent on games = $\frac{3}{7}$

Thus we can say,

Amount spend on games = $\frac{3}{7}$ of total money he has

$\rightarrow \frac{3}{7} \times 14 = 3 \times 2 = 6$

Thus he spend $ 6 on playing games

Money left with Winton:

Money left = total money he had - money spent on playing games

Money left = 14 - 6 = 8

Thus amount left with winton is $ 8
