Question

Ria has one-third of a chocolate bar and Siya has two-thirds of the chocolate bar. Who has more chocolate?

• A. Ria
• B. Siya
• C. Both have equal share
• D. Cannot be determined

Answer 1

The correct option is B

Siya

As we can see from the above figure, Siya has more chocolate.

Also, the fraction of chocolate Ria has = $\frac{1}{3}$

The fraction of chocolate bar Siya has = $\frac{2}{3}$

$\frac{1}{3}$ and $\frac{2}{3}$ are like fractions because their denominator is same.

To compare like fractions, we only compare their numerator.

1 < 2.

Therefore, $\frac{1}{3}<\frac{2}{3}$.

Therefore, Siya has more chocolate.
