Hello!

Maria spent 4/7 and saved the rest, so you can subtract 7 and 4 to find out what fraction of her money she saved . . .

7 - 4 = 3 <-------

This means 3/7 of her money was saved.

3/7 is the fraction of money Maria saved.

Hope this helps you.
Have a great day!

Hi there!

Since all, or one whole of a book is equal to 1, we subtract:

1 - 4/7 = 3/7

So, Maria has 3/7 of her money left.

Hope this helps!
