Question

The School brought seedlings for tree planting. The seedlings are shown in the table below.

Answer 1

48 + 32 + 20 = 100 seedlings

Mango:  $\dfrac{48}{100} = \dfrac{12}{25}$

Mahogony:   $\dfrac{32}{100} = \dfrac{8}{25}$

Narra:    $\dfrac{20}{100} = \dfrac{1}{5}$

Mahogony + Narra: $\dfrac{32+20}{100} = \dfrac{13}{25}$

Word problem: How much larger is the fraction of Mango seeds than Narra seeds?

$\dfrac{12}{25} - \dfrac{1}{5} = \dfrac{12}{25} - \dfrac{5}{25} = \dfrac{7}{25}$
