Susan bought 15 apples and ate 1/3 of them. Abby bought 8 apples and ate 1/4 of them. Susan and Abby ate the same amount of apples. Is this true?
Nvm It closed the test. -_-
15 *2/3 = ?
8 * 3/4 = ??
Compare ? and ??
To determine if Susan and Abby ate the same amount of apples, we need to find out how many apples each of them ate.
Susan bought 15 apples and ate 1/3 of them. To find the number of apples Susan ate, we need to calculate 1/3 of 15:
1/3 * 15 = 5
Therefore, Susan ate 5 apples.
Abby bought 8 apples and ate 1/4 of them. To find the number of apples Abby ate, we need to calculate 1/4 of 8:
1/4 * 8 = 2
Therefore, Abby ate 2 apples.
From the calculations, we see that Susan ate 5 apples and Abby ate 2 apples. Therefore, Susan and Abby did not eat the same amount of apples.
