    She spent 29/35 of total amount she had.

    Step-by-step explanation:

    Let the amount Shalyn had be x.

    She spent 2/5 of her money on a ticket. (i. e 2/5 of x)

    She spent 3/7 of her money on popcorn. (i. e 3/7 of x)

    So we need to find the total she spent.

    i. e Total amount spent = Amount spent on movie ticket + amount spent on popcorn

    Total amount spent = 2/5 of x + 3/7 of x

    Total amount spent = (2/5 + 3/7) of x

    Total amount spent = (29/35) of x

    So she spent 23/35 of total amount she had.
