Detailed Solution

Given that a book has 100 pages and Lalita read 30 pages of the book.
Let the fractions of Lalita's and Sarita's number of pages read to be,
In the case of Lalita,

30100 = 310

In the case of Sarita,

25

Changing the fractions into like fractions,

310 × 11 = 310 25 × 22 = 410

For like fractions the fraction with a greater numerator will be greater,

410 > 310 ⇒ 25 > 310

So, Sarita read more than Lalita as,

25 > 310

Hence, option (1) is correct.
