Answer 1

The Vikram is not correct as he said that he drank a total of 39/100

What is the fraction number?

A fraction number is the number which is a part of a whole number. It is written with a numerator and denominator. Fraction number are written as,

$\dfrac{a}{b}$

Here (a) is the numerator and (b) is the denominator.

Vikram drinks 6/10 of a liter of water after gym class and 33/100 hours of a liter of juice with his lunch.

Thus, the total amount he drank is,

$n=\dfrac{6}{10}+\dfrac{33}{100}$

Take the LCM 100, to solve it further,

$n=\dfrac{60+33}{100}\\n=\dfrac{99}{100}$

Now, Vikram says he drank a total of 39/100 of a liter, which is an incorrect claim.

Thus, the Vikram is not correct as he said that he drank a total of 39/100

of a liter in gym class and in his lunch, but he drank a total of 39/100 of a liter.
