Question

a builder uses 2/5 of available land for roads and parks,3/8 for the community hall,and rest in construction of apartment, which of these get the maximum share ​

Answer 1

Let The Available Land Be x

->For Road and Park Construction 2x/5 Land is Used

->For Community Hall 3x/8 Land is used

->For Construction of Apartment

x - (2x/5 +3x/8) Land is Used

i.e 9x/40

Now Comparison:

Roads > Community > Apartment

Hence Roads Gets the Maximum Share..

Jai Hindi...

Answer 2

Answer:

let the total land=x

land used for road=2/5 of x

land used for hall=3/8 of x

remaining part of land=x- (2/5x+3/8x)=x-31/40x=9/40x

maximum share is of land used for land as it has small denominator.

rational number having large denominator has small value and vice versa
