Answer:
4/5 or 0.8
Step-by-step explanation:
1/3x = 5/12
<em>cross</em><em> </em><em>multiply</em>
(12×1) = (5×3x)
<em>divide</em><em> </em><em>through</em> <em>by</em> <em>1</em><em>5</em>
x = 12/15
x = 4/5 <em>o</em><em>r</em><em> </em>0.8
I would say that they equally brought the same quantity. 3/4 is 3 out of 4, 2/3 is 2 out of 3. I just see that they both made equal effort.
