Question

there are two identical glasses. one glass is 5/6 full. the other is 3/4 full. water is poured from one glass to the other so that one of them is now full. what fraction of the other glass is filed?

Answer 1

Answer:

1 7/12

Step-by-step explanation:

because the water was poured to the other glass so it means that we are adding

= 5/6 + 3/4

={(2×5) + (3×3)}/12

that 12 is due to LCM of 6 and 4

={ 10 + 9 }/12

= 19/12

= 1 7/12

those are my thoughts

Answer 2

The required fraction of the other glass is 1/6.

There are two identical glasses, one glass is 5/6 full and the other is 3/4 full. Water is poured from one glass to the other so that one of them is now full.

What is volume?

Volume, is defined as the ratio of the mass of object to its density.

Let the volume of the glass is V.
Now, unfilled volume of the glass 2 is,
=V-3/4V
=1/4V
1/4V amount of water will be tool from glass 1 to get completely filled.
So
=5/6V-1/4V
= 1/6V
Here 1/6 times of volume left in glass 1.

Thus the required fraction of the other glass is 1/6.
