Ila read 25 pages of a book containing 100 pages. Lalita read $ \frac{2}{5} $ of the same book. Who read less?

Given:

Ila read 25 pages of a book containing 100 pages. Lalita read \( \frac{2}{5} \) of the same book. 

To do:

We have to find who among the two read less.

Solution:

Total number of pages in the book $= 100$ pages

Number of pages read by Ila $=25$ pages

Number of pages read by Lalita $= \frac{2}{5}\times 100$

$= 40$ pages

Therefore,

Ila read less than Lalita.
