To find out what fraction of her money is left, we need to subtract the amount spent from the total amount of money.
Let's assume that the total amount of money the girl had is represented by the fraction 1. To find out what fraction is left, we'll subtract the fractions representing the amount spent.
On Monday, the girl spent 1/4 of her money. This can be represented by subtracting 1/4 from 1:
1 - 1/4 = (4/4) - (1/4) = 3/4
So after Monday, the girl has 3/4 of her money left.
Then, on Wednesday, she spent 3/8 of her remaining money. Since she already had 3/4 left, we can calculate the amount she spent on Wednesday by subtracting 3/8 from 3/4:
3/4 - 3/8 = (6/8) - (3/8) = 3/8
Therefore, after Wednesday, the girl has 3/8 of her remaining money left.
In conclusion, the fraction of money the girl has left after spending 1/4 on Monday and 3/8 on Wednesday is 3/8.
