    Direction: Study the following statements.
    \[\frac{\mathbf{2}}{\mathbf{3}}\]of wire P is 80 cm long. \[\frac{\mathbf{2}}{\mathbf{5}}\]of wire Q is 46 cm long.
    Which of the given statements is correct?

    A)  Wire P is shorter than wire Q.

    B)  The length of wire P is twice that of wire Q.

    C)  The two wires have the same lengths.

    D)  Wire P is longer than wire Q.

    Correct Answer: D

    Solution :

    Length of wire \[\text{P = 80  }\!\!\times\!\!\text{  }\frac{\text{3}}{\text{2}}\text{ = 120 cm}\] and length of wire \[\text{Q = 46  }\!\!\times\!\!\text{  }\frac{\text{5}}{\text{2}}\text{ = 115 cm}\] Since 120 > 115, wire P is longer than wire Q.
