Answer 1

Solution:
Anu got holidays from 12/05/2021 to 25/06/2021

From 12/05/2021 to 31/05/2021, there are (31-12 +1) days = 20 days ( Including 12th, as 12th is also holiday )
From 01/06/2021 to 25/06/2021, there are 25 days
Total number of days = 20 + 25 = 45 [1.5 Mark]
So, Anu has 45 days for the holidays.


Venu got holidays from 01/05/2021 to 09/06/2021
From 01/05/2021 to 31/05/2021 there are 31 days.
And from 01/06/2021 to 09/06/2021 there are 09 days.
Total number of days = 31 + 09 = 40 days [1.5 Mark]
So, Venu has 40 holidays.
45 > 40
Difference of days = 45 - 40 = 5 days [1 Mark]

Comparing these numbers we can say that Anu got 5 more holidays than Venu
