A fisherman caught one fish that was 12/5 feet long and a second fish that was 9/4 feet long. How much longer was the first fish? *

Respuesta :

Answer: the first fish was 3/20 feet longer.

Explanation: in order to compare the fractions you need to multiply 12/5 by 4 and 9/4 by 5. That leaves us with 48/20 and 45/20 after that you simply subtract and are left with 3/20.
