Answer 1

Mr Bbott washed the most of the laundry.

Step - by - Step Explanation

What to find?

• The one that wash the laundry the most.

,

• The number of the laundry that still needs to be washed.

From the given question;

Mr Bott washed 2/7 of his laundry and his son wahed 1/4 of the laundry.

Compare 2/7 and 1/4

`(2)/(7)=(2*4)/(7*4)=(8)/(28)`
`(1)/(4)=(1*7)/(4*7)=(7)/(28)`

Comparing the two fraction, 8/28 is greater than 7/28.

Since Mr Bbott washed 2/7 = 8/28 , then Mr Bott washed the most of the laundry.
