Molly watched a larger fraction of a movie than Jessica, so Molly spent more time watching the movie.

Step-by-step explanation:

Molly watched 0.34 of a movie, and Jessica watched 0.23 of a different movie. If we consider watching a full movie as 1 unit of time, to determine who spent more time, we simply compare these two fractions. Molly's fraction is larger than Jessica's fraction, which means Molly spent more time watching the movie.

Therefore, the correct option is: A. Molly watched more.

The probable question can be:

Molly watched 0.34 of a movie, and Jessica watched 0.23 of a different movie. If watching a full movie takes 1 unit of time, who spent more time watching a movie? Express your answer as a comparison of Molly's and Jessica's movie-watching times.

A. Molly watched more

B. Jessica watched more

C. They watched the same amount

D. Not enough information to determine

Choose the correct option.
