    7/12 of the homework is left

    Step-by-step explanation:

    If x represents homework on Sunday ...

    1/4 + 1/6 + x = 1

    3/12 + 2/12 + x = 1

    5/12 + x = 1

    5/12 - 5/12 + x = 1 - 5/12

    x = 7/12

    7/12 hw to do on sunday

    explanation:

    1/4 + 1/6

    = 3/12 + 2/12 (this is because u find the LCM (lowest common multiple) for both the denominators, to make the denominator the same

    then after that add both together:

    2/12 + 3/12 = 5/12

    to finish the question, u subtract 12/12 by 5/12

    = 12/12 - 5/12 = 7/12

    so, therefore u have 7/12 left of homework to do on sunday.
