Answer:

7/20

Explanation:

To find out how much longer Sarah practiced than Eloise, we need to compare the lengths of time they practiced.

To compare the two fractions, we need to find a least common denominator. In this case, the least common denominator is 20 because both 5 and 4 can be evenly divided by it.

So, let's convert 2/5 to an equivalent fraction with a denominator of 20. Multiplying both the numerator and denominator of 2/5 by 4 gives us 8/20.

Now we can compare 8/20 with 15/20 (which is 3/4 in equivalent fraction form).

Since 15/20 is larger than 8/20, we can conclude that Sarah practiced piano for a longer time than Eloise.

To find out how much longer Sarah practiced, we can subtract the time Eloise practiced from the time Sarah practiced.

15/20 - 8/20 equals 7/20.

Therefore, Sarah practiced piano 7/20 of an hour longer than Eloise.

Answer: 7/20

Explanation

Subtract the fractions

3/4 - 2/5

(3/4)*(5/5) - (2/5)*(4/4)

15/20 - 8/20

(15-8)/20

7/20
