Simple, it's thousand!! friends
Here you go!
I used the long division method,
The first carpenter is 0.4464 of the way is ahead of the second carpenter
<u>Solution:</u>
Given, Two carpenters are building a fence
After 5 minutes, one carpenter is finished 4/7 of the way
Second carpenter finished 1/8 of the way
Now, let us find the work done by each carpenter

Then, extra work done by first carpenter over second carpenter = work done by first carpenter – work done by second carpenter
= 0.5714 – 0.125 = 0.4464
Hence, the 1st carpenter is 0.4464 of the way is ahead of the 2nd carpenter
A=(a(b))/2
surface area and area are the same in 2D shapes
A= (1.5(1.2))/2 =(1.8)/2 = 0.9 m squared
