Answer:

5/28

Step-by-step explanation:

Salvador sold hats during a weekend sporting event. On Saturday, Salvador sold 4/7 of the total number of hats. On Sunday, he sold 1/4 of the total number of hats. What fraction of the total number of hats was left over

Total number of hats = x

Hats sold on Saturday = 4/7x

Hats sold on Sunday = 1/4x

Hats left over = x - (4/7x + 1/4x)

= x - ( 16x+7x/28)

= x - 23/28x

= 28x - 23x/28

= 5/28x
