Question

I) Tina exercised for 2/6 of an hour, while Reema exercised for 3/4 of an hour. Who exercised for a longer period and by what fraction of an hour? ​

Answer 1

Tina exercised for 2/6 hr and Rohit exercised for 3/4 hr converting these into like fractions.

$\frac{2}{6} = \frac{2 \times 4}{6 \times 4} = \frac{8}{24}$

$\frac{3}{4} = \frac{3 \times 6}{4 \times 6} = \frac{18}{24}$

$\frac{8}{24} < \frac{18}{24} = \frac{2}{6} < \frac{3}{4}$

Hence, Reema exercised for a longer time.
