   A bag contains red, blue and green marbles.     

   2/3 of the marbles are not red and     

   3/4 of the marbles are not blue.     

   What fraction of the marbles are not green? Express your fraction in lowest terms.     

 

   2/3 of the marbles are not red     ==>>   1/3 are red    =   4/12     

   3/4 of the marbles are not blue    ==>>   1/4 are blue  =   3/12     

                                                              total red & blue  =   7/12 (not green)
