Question

1-Ritu ate 3/5 part of an apple and the remaining apple was eaten by her brother Somu. How much part of the apple did Somu eat? Who had the larger share? By how much?​

Answer 1

Given :

Ritu ate = 3/5 part of an apple.

Remaining apple was eaten by her brother somu .

Finding the part Somu ate :

$= > 1 - \dfrac{3}{5}$

$= > \dfrac{5 - 3}{5}$

$= > \dfrac{2}{5}$

Hence, Somu ate 2/5 part of the apple.

Who had larger share ? By how much ?

Rita ate 3/5 part of an apple.

Somu ate 2/5 part of an apple.

$= > \dfrac{3}{5} - \dfrac{2}{5} = \dfrac{1}{5}$

Hence, Rita had larger share by 1/5.
