Question

Robert read 25 pages of a book containing 100 pages. Mary read 2/5 of the same book.Who read less?(Explain step by step)​

Answer 1

Answer:

Robert.

Step-by-step explanation:

Robert read 25 pages of a 100 page book.

Mary read 2/5th of the same 100 page book

i.e. $\frac{2}{5}$ × 100 = 40

=> Mary read 40 pages of the same book.

Robert read less, as he read only 25 pages but Mary read 40 pages
