Question

A bottle of orange juice hlds 4/6 quart of juice. A bottle of pineapple juice holds 2/3 quart of juice. Which bottle has more juice? Hoe do you know?

Answer 1

2/3 because 2 is close to 3 and 4 isnt very close to 6

Answer 2

Both bottles holds same amount of juice.

Explanation:

We have been given that a bottle of orange juice holds
`(4)/(6)` quart of juice. A bottle of pineapple juice holds
`(2)/(3)` quart of juice. We are asked to which bottle has more juice.

First of all, we will reduce the fraction representing orange juice to lowest terms as shown below:

`(4)/(6)=(2*2)/(2*3)=(2)/(3)`

Since both fractions are equivalent, therefore, both bottles hold same amount of juice.
