Answer 2

Answer:

• yes each made up an equal of pencil,1/2

Step-by-step explanation:

Total number of pencils Ramesh had = 20

Number of pencils used by Ramesh = 10

∴ Fraction = 10 / 20 = 1 / 2

Total number of pencils Sheelu had = 50

Number of pencils used by Sheelu = 25

∴ Fraction = 25 / 50 = 1 / 2

,                                                                                    Total number of pencils Jamaal had = 80                                                              number of pencils used by jamaal = 40                                                                                ∴  fractions = 40/80 = 1/2
