8. Ramesh had 20 pencils, Sheelu had 50 pencils and Jamaal had 80 pencils. After 4
months, Ramesh used up 10 pencils, Sheelu used up 25 pencils and Jamaal used up
40 pencils. What fraction did each use up? Check if each has used up an equal fraction
of her/his pencils?

Answer 1

Answer:

Total pencils = 20

Used up pencils = 10

Fraction of pencils used = 10/20 = 1/2

Sheelu:

Total pencils = 50

Used up pencils = 25

Fraction of pencils used = 25/50 =1/2

Jamaal:

Total pencils = 80

Used up pencils = 40

Fraction of pencils used = 40/80 =1/2
