Question

4th Grade Ro. Marcel completed 5/6 of a race. Reggie completed 6/10 of the same race. who completed the lesser amount of the race.

Answer 1

ok

Marcel = 5/6 = 0.83

Reggie = 6/10 = 3/5 = 0.6

0.83 > 0.6

Reggie completed the lesser amount of the race.

I've just convert the fractions into decimal numbers and I compared the results.

The distance ran by Reggie is shorter than the distance ran by Marcel.
