Ritu ate\[\frac{3}{5}\] part of an apple and the remaining apple was eaten by her brother Somu. How much part of the apple did Somu eat? Who had the larger share? By how much?

Answer:

                Part of the apple ate by Somu                 \[=\frac{1}{1}-\frac{3}{5}=\frac{5-3}{5}=\frac{2}{5}\] \[\because \]     \[3>2\] \[\therefore \]  \[\frac{3}{5}>\frac{2}{5}\] \[\therefore \] Ritu had the larger share by \[\frac{3}{5}-\frac{2}{5}=\frac{3-2}{5}=\frac{1}{5}\].
