Answer 1

josan and Andrea are on a bike ride . They can only stop if either of theirHell water bottles is less than half full.

Josan bottle is

`\begin{gathered} (2)/(5)\text{ full} \\ The\text{ half of 5 is 2.5 , therefore josan should stop because his water } \\ \text{bottle is below half . } \end{gathered}`

Andrea bottle is

`\begin{gathered} (5)/(6)\text{ full } \\ \text{Andrea water bottle is above half . The half of 6 is 3 so }(5)/(6)\text{ } \\ is\text{ above }(3)/(6) \end{gathered}`

Since Josan bottle water is less than half both of them will stop .
