Question

Josan and Andrea are ona long-distance bike ride. They decide they will stop for water if either of their watet bottles is less than half full. Josan's bottle is 2/5 full. Andrea's bottle is 5/6 full. Should they stop? Explain.

Answer 1

The answer would be yes because 2/5 is less than half of Josan's water bottle.

Step-by-step explanation:
We'll start by figuring if either is less than half full. We know that half of 5/6 = 3/6, so we can cross of Andrea's bottle fill amount for a reason to stop. Half of 5 = 2.5, and since 2 is less than 2.5 (or half), they can stop for water.

Hope I helped and good luck!
