Question

Gopal got 42 out of 75 in one examination and 36 out of 60 in another examination in which examination did he do better​

Answer 1

Marks he got in first examination= 42/75
Marks he got in second examination= 36/60

Comparison:

Step 1. Firstly, we shall make their denominators the same using LCM (least common factor).

Step 2. Compare them.

Step 3. Your answer is ready.

Now, let’s use the method given above...

1. LCM of the given denominators (75 and 60) is 300. The numbers now are 168/300 and 180/300.
2. 168/300 < 180/300
3. 180/300 or 36/60 is greater than 168/300 or 42/75. Thus, he scored better in second examination.

Answer: He scored better in second examination.

Hope this will help you...
