Answer: [tex]\dfrac{3}{8}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x denotes the total pocket money Josh has.

As per given , we have

Saved pocket money = [tex]\dfrac{1}{4}x[/tex]

Money Remains = [tex]x-\dfrac{x}{4}=\dfrac{3x}{4}[/tex]

Money he spent = [tex]\dfrac{1}{2}[/tex] of (Money Remains)

=  [tex]\dfrac{1}{2}\times\dfrac{3x}{4}[/tex]

[tex]=[/tex][tex]\dfrac{3x}{8}[/tex]

Hence, the fraction of money he spent = [tex]\dfrac{3}{8}[/tex]
