Answer: (11/8)

Step-by-step explanation:

I will answer this in English.

a person collects 7/4 of an amount, spends 1/4 and lends 1/8. What fraction of the amount collected is left?

If the amount is A, then he collects:

C = (7/4)*A

Now, he spends 1/4 and lends 1/8 of the amount A, so the fraction left is:

Left = (7/4)*A - (1/4)*A - (1/8)*A

now i will write 7/4 as 14/8 and 1/4 as 2/8.

left = (14/8)*A - (2/8)*A - (1/8)*A  = ((14 - 2 - 1)/8)*A = (11/8)*A
