Are they correct?
Thank you for helping.
All of them are correct except 6. Good job!
Since you're comparing Lisa with more than one other, you should use "best," rather than "better."
Yes, the sentences you provided are correct. However, there are a few minor corrections and suggestions to improve clarity:
1. Does Jonah paint more carefully than Eden? (carefully is the correct adverb here)
2. Which of the two emails arrived sooner? (soon is the correct adverb here)
3. Who waited more patiently, Marta or Justin? (patiently is the correct adverb here)
4. This is the least badly he has ever done on an exam. (badly is the correct adverb here, but it is more commonly used in negative sentences like "He did not do well on the exam.")
5. My car breaks down less frequently than yours. (frequently is the correct adverb here)
6. Lise swims better when she competes against others. (well is the correct adverb here. However, to improve clarity, you can use "performs" instead of "competes against others" like "Lise swims better during competitions.")
