Miss Lianto mowed 2/7 of her lawn. Her son mowed 1/4 of it. Who mowed most of the lawn? How much of the lawn still needs to be mowed?

HURRY AND BE CORRECT PLEASE!!!

Answer 1

Answer: 1/4 is greater than 2/7 mowed most of the lawn.

Explanation:

First, draw a fraction model for
`(2)/(7)` and
`(1)/(4)` and partition it. Then, how ever many you get write it as a fraction. Then, see whose answer is greater.

Answer 2

Answer: 2/7 = 8/28

1/4 = 7/28

Therefore Mr Pham mowed more.

8+7 = 15 so 15/28 of lawn has been mowed, therefore 13/28 of the lawn is left still to be mowed.

Mr. Pham mowed more of the lawn than his son.

it still needs ¹³/₂₈ of the lawn to be mowed.
