Question
Kartik ate 35 part of an apple and Bharat ate the remaining part of the apple. What fraction of the apple did Bharat eat? Who had the larger share and by how much? [2 MARKS]
Answer: Option A
:
Each answer: 1 Mark
Given that:
Fraction of the apple Kartik ate =35
Fraction of the apple uneaten =1−35
=5−35
=25
This part was eaten by his brother Bharath
∴ Bharath ate 25th part of the apple.
Comparing two fractions we have
35&25
Clearly 35>25
⇒ Karthik had the larger share which was larger by 35−25=15.
