Question

The table shows the distance 4 people swam. Who swam a greater distance than Milo? Name Distance Jule and Lorrie and 3 Lorrie miles Karrie Karrie 4 1 Milo miles 2 Julie and Lorrie only 3 Lorrie Jule miles 8 00 00|WN Karrie 5 miles

Answer 1

We need to first convert the frcations to its equivalent

`Lorrie(3)/(4)=(3*2)/(4*2)=(6)/(8)`
`\text{Milo }(1)/(2)=(1*4)/(2*4)=(4)/(8)`
`\text{Jule }(3)/(8)`
`\text{Karrie }(5)/(8)`

Comparing the fractions, 5/8 and 6/8 is higher than 4/8

Hence, Lorrie and Karrie swam greater than milo
