In a marathon of 5 km, Manish could run for 2 km. If Kushagra ran for 12 of the total length of the marathon, who covered more distance?
Kushagra
Part of distance covered by Manish = 25
Part of distance covered by Kushagra =12
Here, to compare these two fractions, cross multiplying we get
2×25×2 = 410
1×52×5 = 510
Manish = 410 ; Kushagra = 510 .
We have 4 < 5 ,
Hence, Kushagra covered more distance.
