In 25 minutes Sam ran 4/5 km while Alonzo ran 5/6 km.Who ran a further distance?

  • [tex]\large{\tt{Alonzo \: ran\: further}}[/tex]

Solution:

Since the LCD of 5/6 and 4/5 is 30

30 will be the denominator

  • [tex]\large{\tt{(5×5) - (4×6)}}[/tex]
  • [tex]\large{\tt{6×5}}[/tex]
  • [tex]\large{\tt{\frac{25-24}{30}}}[/tex]

  • [tex]\huge\green{\boxed{\tt{=\frac{1}{30}}}}[/tex]

Alonzo ran 1/30 km more than Sam
