Answer :
This is because (1/3) = (2/6). 10 copies of (1/6) = (10/6) and 5 copies of (2/6) = (10/6) too. (1/3) is just the most simplified form for (2/6)
Step-by-step explanation:
Since we have given that
It take 10 copies of 1 sixth to make the same amount as 5 copies of 1 third.
Amount of work in case of 10 copies of 1 sixth is given by
[tex]\frac{10}{6}=\frac{5}{3}[/tex]
Amount of work in case of 5 copies of 1 third is given by
[tex]\frac{5}{3}[/tex]
since both the amount of work is same.
Hence, they are same.
