Problema Solution
a box turtle hibernates in sand at -1 5/8 feet a spotted turtle hibernates at -1 16/25 feet which turtle is deeper.
Answer provided by our tutors
1 5/8= (8*1 + 5)/8 = 13/8
1 16/25 = (1*25 + 16)/25 = 41/25
LCM(8, 25) = 200
13/8 = (25*23)/(25*8) = 325/200 ft
41/25 = (41*8)/(25*8) = 328/200 ft
Since 328/200 > 325/200 the spotted turtle hibernates deeper.
