Lucy made 35cupckes

JoJo made 42 cupcakes

Total cupcakes made by JoJo and Lucy = 35+42 = 76cupcakes

Remaining cupcakes still needed to be made = 140 - 76 = 64cupckes

Fraction of the cupcakes that Lucy and JoJo still need to make = 64/140

Fraction of the cupcakes that Lucy and JoJo still need to make = 16/35

Hence the fraction of the cupcakes that Lucy and JoJo still need to make is 16/35
