Answer:

Option B.

Explanation:

This question is incomplete; find the complete question with the attachment.

Franco made number of muffins = a dozen

A dozen muffins = 12 muffins

Number of muffins were burned = 2

Remaining muffins = 12 - 2 = 10

Franco served 7 of the remaining non-burned muffins,

Fraction of muffins served =
(7)/(10)

Remaining muffins = 3

Fraction of remaining muffins =
(3)/(10)

Fraction of remaining non-burned muffins we can get from,


(10)/(10)-(7)/(10)=(3)/(10)

Option B is the correct equation.
