Answer:

3/7

Explanation:

Hey there!

To find this out, we have to put the numerator of the fraction as the number of marbles he has left, and the denominator as the number of marbles he had in total before he played

# of marbles in total - 56

# of marbles he has left - (56 - 32) 24

Fraction - 24/56

Simplify - 24/56 --> 3/7

So, the fraction of his original marbles he has left as a fraction is 3/7
