If each rack consist of 10 box of chalk stick, then total number of box on 4 racks will be

4X 10 = 40

Now, the second part is 10 of the boxes are in use which means that total amount of box left is= 40 – 10 = 30.

Now the fraction will be

Remained/ total = 30/ 40 = 3 / 4 is the fraction remain in the rack
