Question

kanta Had 174 toffees and Maya had 240 toffees. kanta used 58 toffees on her birthday and Maya used 80 toffees on her birthday. what fraction of toffees did each of them use?did they use equal fraction of their toffees?

Answer 1

1st case

If kanta had used 174 toffees and she used 58 toffees.

= 58/ 174 = 1/3 ....(1) { used ÷ total toffes} .
so the fraction in case of kanta is (1/3).


2nd case

if Maya had 24p toffees and she used 80 toffees.
= 80/240 =1/3 ..(2)



from 1 nd 2 it is clear that
they use equal fraction of their tofees....




thank you
