Answer: 4 cards are left to be colored.

Step-by-step explanation:

As per given,

Fraction of total cards colored = [tex]\dfrac12+\dfrac38[/tex]

[tex]=\dfrac{4+3}{8}\\\\=\dfrac{7}{8}[/tex]

Fraction of cards left to be colored = [tex]1-\dfrac78=\dfrac18[/tex]

Total cards = 32

Number of cards to be colored = [tex]\dfrac18\times32=4[/tex]

Hence, 4 cards are left to be colored.
