Question

Vidhya and pratap went for a picnic. Their mother gave them a water bag that contained 5 litres of water . Vidhya consumed 2/5 of water .Pratap consumed the remaining water . What fraction pf the total quantity of water did pratap drink.

Answer 1

`\text{Pratap consumed }(3)/(5) \text{ of the water.}`

Explanation:

We are given the following in the question:

Capacity of Jug = 5 litres

Amount of water consumed by Vidhya =

`(2)/(5)`

Pratap consumed the remaining water.

We have to calculate the fraction of water Pratap drink.

Fraction of water Pratap drink =

`=1-(2)/(5)\\\\=(3)/(5)`

Thus, Pratap consumed
`(3)/(5)` of the water.
