Answer:

The question mark is 4/7.

Explanation:

Lets call the symbols Girl, Diamond, and Chest.

The second line has Diamond/Chest = 0

You can NEVER have zero on the bottom of a fraction. NEVER divide by 0. So this statement shows us that Diamond = 0

Now, look at the first statement.

Girl - Diamond = 5/7

Girl - 0 = 5/7

Girl = 5/7

We could use the third statement to find what the Chest equals. But let's skip it and save it to check our answer.

Look at the fourth statement.

Chest = 9/7 + Diamond

Chest = 9/7 + 0

Chest = 9/7

So far we found

Girl is 5/7 and

Chest is 9/7.

Do a check with the third statement.

2=Girl+Chest

2=5/7 + 9/7

2= 14/7

2= 2 That checks.

Lastly,

Chest - Girl = ?

9/7 - 5/7 = ?

4/7 = ?
