How to solve mixed applications.Last month 1/10 of the tshirts sold were size extra large and 1/8 were extra small. Were more extra large or extra small t shirts sold last month?



Answer :

We have the next information:

1/10 of the T-shirts sold were size extra

1/8 were extra small

Now, we need to find which fraction represents a higher number.

Convert to decimal each fraction:

[tex]\frac{1}{10}=0.1[/tex]

and

[tex]\frac{1}{8}=0.125[/tex]

Hence, 1/8 is greater than 1/10. So, more extra small tshirts were sold.
