Question

In Mr.Navarro’s first period class, 17/28 of the students got an A on their math test. In his second period class, 11/28 of the students got an A. What fraction more of students got an A Mr. Navarro’s first period class than second period class? Simplest form

Answer 1

Fraction in simplest form as
`(3)/(14)`

Explanation:

Given as,

Fraction of students got A in first period class =
`(17)/(28)`

Fraction of students got A in second period class =
`(11)/(28)`

Now,

Fraction of more student got A in first period class to second period class =
`(17)/(28)` -
`(11)/(28)`

or,
`(17 - 11)/(28)`

Or,
`(6)/(28)`,

Again covert this fraction in simplest form

simplest form : A fraction is in simplest form, when numerator and denominator can not be any smaller, but still being whole number.

So, this fraction in simplest form as
`(3)/(14)` Answer
