Question

25. Leena and Ricky went for jogging in the morning. Leena ran 2/3 of the track and Ricky ran 5/6 of

the same track. Who ran more and by how much?

Answer 1

Ricky ran 16.66% more of the track than Leena

Explanation:

First, we find how much each ran as a percentage.

Leena ran 2/3 of the track

As a percentage, Leena ran:

2*100%/3 = 66.67%.

Ricky ran 5/6 of the same track.

As a percentage, Ricky ran:

5*100%/6 = 8333%

Thus Rick ran more, by 83.33% - 66.67% = 16.66%.
