Question

Maria walked 3/4 of a mile. Cody walked 6/10 of a mile. How much farther did Maria walk than Cody?

Answer 1

Answer:

3/20

Step-by-step explanation:

Take the miles that Maria walked and subtract the miles that Cody walked

3/4 - 6/10

Simplify 6/10 by dividing the top and bottom by2

3/4 - 3/5

Get a common denominator of 20

3/4 *5/5 = 15/20

3/5 *4/4 =12/20

15/20 - 12/20

3/20

Answer 2

Answer:

0.15(3/20) miles more than Cody

3/4 = 0.75

6/10 = 0.6

Therefore, Maria walked 0.15(3/20) miles greater than Cody.
