Liz and erin are different ages but eat from the same size of bowl. Liz ate 4 servings of cereal. Each serving was 1/3 of a bowl. Erin ate 3 servings of cereal. Each serving was 2/3 ​of a bowl. Who ate more bowls of cereal?

Erin ate more because
1/3+1/3+1/3+1/3= 1and1/3 which is Liz’s amount of cereal and Erin ate 2/3+2/3+2/3=2
So Erin ate 2 bowels of cereal
