Question

Jinil had 6 packs of pencils, and each pack was 2/5 full. Laura had 8 packs of pencils, each 1/4 full. Who had more pencils? How many packs more?

I think Jinil has more pencils but I don't know how many packs he had more I don't know how to do that.

it doesn't make sense to me because he has 6 packs and she has 8 so he cant have more

Answer 1

2/5= 0.40
1/4= 0.25
So Jinil has 6 packs. Each pack was 0.4 full.
Laura has 8 packs of pencils, and each pack is 0.25 full.

Answer 2
