Before it started to rain, Amnar cut 1/6

of the grass and Aayush cut 1/3
of the grass. Which statement is true?

1 answer

To compare the portions of grass that Amnar and Aayush cut, we need to examine the fractions they each cut:

  • Amnar cut \( \frac{1}{6} \) of the grass.
  • Aayush cut \( \frac{1}{3} \) of the grass.

To compare \( \frac{1}{6} \) and \( \frac{1}{3} \), we can convert \( \frac{1}{3} \) to a fraction with a denominator of 6:

\[ \frac{1}{3} = \frac{2}{6} \]

Now we can clearly see that:

  • Amnar cut \( \frac{1}{6} \)
  • Aayush cut \( \frac{2}{6} \)

Since \( \frac{2}{6} \) is greater than \( \frac{1}{6} \), we can conclude that Aayush cut more grass than Amnar.

Thus, the true statement is: Aayush cut more grass than Amnar.
