Question

three students were reading the same novel. romaisa read 3/5 of the novel, syed read 17/25 of the novel, and felix read 0.63 of the novel. who has read the most?

Explanation:

Step1: Convert Romaisa's fraction to decimal

Romaisa read $\frac{3}{5}$ of the novel. To convert this to a decimal, we divide 3 by 5: $3\div5 = 0.6$.

Step2: Convert Syed's fraction to decimal

Syed read $\frac{17}{25}$ of the novel. Divide 17 by 25: $17\div25 = 0.68$.

Step3: Compare the decimals

We have Romaisa: $0.6$, Syed: $0.68$, and Felix: $0.63$. Comparing these decimals, $0.68>0.63>0.6$. So Syed's decimal is the largest.

Answer:

Syed has read the most of the novel.
