The number of assignments in the history, science, and art sections combined is 125
history section + science section + art section
history section + science section + art section + math section = total number of assignments
Subtracting the history, science, and art sections from both sides of the equation
math section = total number of assignments - 125 = 78
the number of assignments in the math section of Leon's binder is 78.

Answer:

78 assignments

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's denote the number of assignments in the math section as "M."

The total number of assignments Leon has is 203, and the number of assignments in the history, science, and art sections combined is 125.

Using this information, we can set up an equation:

[tex] M + 125 = 203 [/tex]

Now, we can solve for M:

[tex] M = 203 - 125 [/tex]

[tex] M = 78 [/tex]

Therefore, Leon has 78 assignments in the math section of his binder.
