Solution

Given that,
Preeti scored $42$ marks out of $50$ marks in mathematics,
So, the Ratio of scored marks to the total marks in mathematics = $\frac{42}{50} = \frac{42 \div 2}{50 \div 2} = \frac{21}{25}$
Preeti scored $23$ marks out of $25$ marks in science,
So, the Ratio of scored marks to the total marks in science= $\frac{23}{25}$
Clearly, $\frac{23}{25} > \frac{21}{25}$
Hence the Performance of Preeti is better in science.
