Question

Maya scored 30 in a 50 marks test. Chaya scored half of what Maya scored. What is the numerator of the fraction representing Chaya's marks?

• A. 50
• B. 15
• C. 20
• D. 30

Answer 1

The correct option is B 15

Maya's marks = 30
Chaya scored half of Maya's score that means Chaya's marks = 30 ÷ 2
= 15
Fraction = $\frac{Parts}{Whole}$

Fraction representing Chaya's score = $\frac{15}{50}$

The numerator of the above fraction is 15, which is the answer.
