Answer 2

The orange fish is
`=(17)/(30)` foot longer than blue fish.

Explanation:

Given : Two kinds of fish can be found in a small tank that is
`5(1)/(7)` feet long a blue fish is
`(2)/(15)` of a foot long and an orange fish is
`(7)/(10)` of a foot long.

To find : How much longer is a orange fish?

Solution :

The blue fish length is
`(2)/(15)` foot.

The orange fish length is
`(7)/(10)` foot.

Now, we have to find how much longer is orange fish that means there is a comparison with blue fish.

So, the length of orange fish than blue is

`=(7)/(10)- (2)/(15)`

`=(7* 15-2* 10)/(10* 15)`

`=(105-20)/(150)`

`=(85)/(150)`

`=(17)/(30)`

Therefore, The orange fish is
`=(17)/(30)` foot longer than blue fish.
