Answer:

$27 is left over.

Explanation:

If you divide 36 by 4, you can find out what 1/4 of 36 is. 36/4 = 9

This $9 is how much he gave away to his brother. In order to find out how much he has leftover for himself, subtract the $9 from the $36.

36-9 = 27.

Therefore, Aaron has $27 leftover for himself.
