Answer:

4/10

Explanation:

Louise's family traveled 3/10 of the distance to her grandmother's house on Saturday.

Let us represent total distance = 1

The remaining distance left is calculated as:

1 - 3/10

Lowest common denominator = 10

= 10 - 3/10 = 7/10

They traveled 4/7 of the remaining distance on Sunday.

This is calculated as:

= 4/7 × 7/10

= 4/10

What fraction of the total distance to her grandmother's house was traveled on Sunday?
