The Sahas were reading a best-selling novel as a family. After the first week, they checked in with each other to see how much each had read. Mr. Saha read 2/6, Mrs. Saha read 1/3, Maddie read 3/4, and George read 2/3. Who read the greatest fraction of the book?

Answer:

maddie

Explanation:

i hope this helps!!

To compare fractions, you have to make all the denominators the same. In this case, 12 would be the lowest common multiple.

you change 2/6 to 4/12, 1/3 to 4/12, 3/4 to 9/12. and 2/3 to 8/12.

the person who read 3/4 was the largest. and that would be maddie.
