Answer:

Bottom box= 103/210

Middle-right box=19/30

Middle-left box=7/21

Explanation:

we can convert 1/7 to 21ths so it will be easier to add.

1/7 = 3/21

so, 3/21 + 4/21 = 7/21

we can now use that to find the box next to it.

The LCM (lowest common multiple) of 21 and 30 is 210.

7/21 = 70/210

29/30 = 203/210

so 203/210-70/210 = 19/30 (simplified)

and finally, we can use this to work out the fraction in the bottom box.

LCM of 30 and 7 is also 210.

so 1/7 = 30/210

19/30 = 133/210

so 133/210 - 30/210 = 103/210.
