Answer:


(13)/(5) pints of paints are left together

Explanation:

Given

Number of pints of paint with Maria
= 4

Number of pints of paint with Emme
= 4

On the first day , Maria used
(3)/(5) of her
4 pints of paints

Hence, Paint left after first day with Maria


= 4 - ((3)/(5) * 4)\\= (20 - 12)/(5) \\= (8)/(5)

On the first day , Emme used
(3)/(4) of her
4 pints of paints

Hence, Paint left after first day with Emme


= 4 - ((3)/(4) * 4)\\\\= 4-3\\= 1

Total pint of paint left with both Maria and emme altogether


= 1 + (8)/(5)\\= (5+8)/(5) \\= (13)/(5)
