Question

Michael finished coloring a picture in $\frac{7}{12}$ hour. Vaibhav finished coloring the same picture in $\frac{3}{4}$ hour. Who worked longer. By what fraction was it longer

Answer 1

Michael painted $=\frac{7}{12}$ hour $=\frac{7}{12}\times 60=35minutes$

Vaibhav painted $=\frac{3}{4}$ hour $=\frac{3}{4}\times 60=45minutes$

$\therefore$ Vaibhav worked longer by a fraction.

$\Rightarrow \frac{10}{35}$

$\Rightarrow \frac{2}{7}$ fraction longer.
