Question

Tom drank 1 1/4 quarts of water and his sister Jane drank 1.75 quarts of water. Write the amount that Jane drank using a fraction. Who drank more water? (Show work)

Answer 1

Answer: 1 3/4 Jane

Explanation:

Change .75 into 75/100 because that’s it fractional form. Then add the 1 to make it 1 75/100 then you need to simply it is 3/4 add the 1 to make it 1 3/4

1 1/4 is smaller than 1 3/4 so it’s Jane.
