Answer:

11/ 20

Explanation:

Given that:

Fraction traveled on first day = 1/4

Fraction traveled on second day = 1/5

In fraction form, the total distance to be traveled is represented as 1

Total distance covered during the two days ;

(1/4 + 1/5)

L.C.M of 5 and 4 = 20

(5 + 4) / 20

= 9/20

Distance left to cover :

Total distance - total distance already covered

1 - 9/20

(20 - 9) / 20

11 / 20
