asha and sameule have book shelves of the same size partly feild with books . asha's shelf is full and sameule is also full . whose book shelf is more feild and by what fraction .

Answer»

Fraction of BOOKS in ASHA’s shelf =5/6

Fraction of books in Samuel’s shelf =2/5

We COMPARE the fractions to find WHOSE shelf is more full.

LCM of 5 & 6 is 30

5/6

=5×5/5×6

=25/30

2/5

=2×6/5×6

=12/30

25/30>12/30

5/6>2/5

So, Asha’s shelf has more books and is more full.

5/6−2/5

=5×5/6×5−2×6/5×6

=25/30−12/30

=13/30

Asha’s shelf is more full and by =13/30
