Debra and Ian shared in a $1,000,000 estate. if Ian received $125,000, and Debra the rest, what fraction of the estate did Debra receive?

OpenStudy (jdoe0001):

well, Ian took 125,000 from the 1,000,000 so debra is left with only 1,000,000 - 125,000 how much is that from 1,000,000? well \(\bf \cfrac{1,000,000-125,000}{1,000,000}\)
