Answer:

The beaker has more water.

Step-by-step explanation:

The beaker which has more water takes more time to reach the room temperature because it has more surface area than other one. If a body has less surface area then it will lose heat energy quickly and to reach its room temperature as compared to the body that has more surface area. Heat transfer depends on the materials in which it is placed and the surrounding environment. In some materials conduction of heat occurs quickly as compared to other materials.
