Detailed Solution

Given that,
Reenu got 2 7 part of an apple.
Sonal got 4 5 part of an apple.
Since the denominators of the above fractions are different , we need to take LCM of the denominators.
Therefore, the L.C.M of 5 and 7 =35 .
Now, using L.C.M. as a common denominator
2×5 7×5 = 10 35
4×7 5×7 = 28 35
Now, comparing the numerators of 10 35 and 28 35 .
10 35 < 28 35 Thus, 2 7 < 4 5 .
Since Sonal got the larger part of the apple
4 5 2 7 = 2810 35 = 18 35
Therefore, Sonal got 18 35 part of the apple more than Reenu.
Thus, the given statement is true.
Hence, option (1) is correct.
