Question

on a particular day rajeev walked 4 1/2 km, neeraj 5 1/3 km,manoj 3 1/ 6. write the distance covered by them in ascending order

Answer 1

Given: On a particular day,

Rajeev walked = $\frac{41}{2}$ km

Neeraj walked = $\frac{51}{3}$ km

Manoj walked = $\frac{31}{6}$ km

To find: Distance covered by Rajeev, Neeraj, and Manoj in ascending order.

Solution:

It is given that,

Distance covered by Rajeev = $\frac{41}{2}$ km

Distance covered by Neeraj = $\frac{51}{3}$ km

Distance covered by Manoj = $\frac{31}{6}$ km

The distance covered by them is in fractions.

Note: (Fraction = $\frac{Numerator}{Denominator}$)

We can observe that the given fractions have different denominators.

So, we need to make a common denominator to compare the fractions.

To do the same we need to take LCM of the denominators.

LCM of 2, 3 and 6 = 6.

So, we will find the equivalent fractions.

⇒ $\frac{41}{2}$ × $\frac{3}{3} = \frac{123}{6}$,          $\frac{51}{3}$ ×$\frac{2}{2}$ = $\frac{102}{6}$,          $\frac{31}{6}$ × $\frac{1}{1} = \frac{31}{6}$

As we have got the like denominators, now, we can simply arrange them in ascending order.

Ascending order: Arranging numbers from smallest to largest from left to right.

So, the ascending order of the given fractions will be: $\frac{31}{6}, \frac{102}{6} and \frac{123}{6}$.

Thus, the answer will be:

The ascending order = $\frac{31}{6} km, \frac{51}{3} km$ and $\frac{41}{2} km.$

Answer 2

Answer:

Given: On a particular day,

Rajeev walked =  km

Neeraj walked =  km

Manoj walked =  km

Step-by-step explanation:

To find: Distance covered by Rajeev, Neeraj, and Manoj in ascending order.

Solution:

It is given that,

Distance covered by Rajeev =  km

Distance covered by Neeraj =  km

Distance covered by Manoj =  km

The distance covered by them is in fractions.

Note: (Fraction = )

We can observe that the given fractions have different denominators.

So, we need to make a common denominator to compare the fractions.

To do the same we need to take LCM of the denominators.

LCM of 2, 3 and 6 = 6.

So, we will find the equivalent fractions.

⇒  × ,           × = ,           ×

As we have got the like denominators, now, we can simply arrange them in ascending order.

Ascending order: Arranging numbers from smallest to largest from left to right.

So, the ascending order of the given fractions will be: .

Thus, the answer will be:

The ascending order =  31/6km 51/3 km and
