Question

In a class A of 25 students, 20 passed in first class; in another class B

of 30 students, 24 passed in first class. In which class was a greater

fraction of students getting first class?​

Answer 1

Both classes have the same fraction (80% or 4/5).

Explanation:

20 is 4/5 of 25, so 80% of students in Class A passed in first class.

24 is 4/5 of 30, so 80% of students in Class B passed in first class.

Both 20/25 and 24/30 simplify to 4/5, or 80%, so both classes have the same fraction of students passing.

Answer 2

class A 20/25 = 4/5

class B 24/30 = 4/5

they are both the same
