Question

sunny bought 16/3 kg of rice he gave 7/6 kg to his friend and 13/12 kg to his sister who got the maximum share​

Answer 1

Here, Compare $\frac{7}{6}$ and $\frac{13}{12}$.

Two compare fractions, first take L.C.M. of 6 and 12 (Denominators).

The L.C.M. of 6 and 12 is 12.

Now make both the denominator 12.

$\frac{7}{6}$ = $\frac{7}{6}$ × $\frac{2}{2}$ = $\frac{14}{12}$ and $\frac{13}{12}$ = $\frac{13}{12}$ × $\frac{1}{1}$ = $\frac{13}{12}$

Here, $\frac{14}{12}$ > $\frac{13}{12}$ (As 14 > 13)

Therefore, $\frac{7}{6}$ > $\frac{13}{12}$

So, Sunny's friend got maximum share.
