Answer: 1/2

Explanation:

The question is for us to calculate the amount of juice that's left.

We are told that Luna mixes 3/4 of orange juice and 3/8 of cranberry juice. The amount of juice mixed will be:

= 3/4 + 3/8

= 6/8 + 3/8

= 9/8

= 1 1/8

We are then told that she gave Mags 5/8 cup of juice. The amount of juice that's then left will be:

= 1 1/8 - 5/8

= 4/8

= 1/2

1/2 cup of juice will be left
