Question:

Winton was given $14 to spend at a school fair he spent 3/7 playing games how much money is left

Answer:

Amount left with winton is $ 8

Solution:

Given that Winton was given $14 to spend at a school fair

He spent
(3)/(7) playing games

To find: money left with Winton

From given information,

Money given to Winton = $ 14

Amount spent on games =
(3)/(7)

Thus we can say,

Amount spend on games =
(3)/(7) of total money he has


\rightarrow (3)/(7) * 14 = 3 * 2 = 6

Thus he spend $ 6 on playing games

Money left with Winton:

Money left = total money he had - money spent on playing games

Money left = 14 - 6 = 8

Thus amount left with winton is $ 8
