car m left town q and car n left town p at the same time. at noon car m traveled 2/3 of the distannce from q to p and car n had traveled 3/4 of the distance from p to q. what fraction of the distance between the two towns is the distance between the two cars at noon?

Answer:

Suppose the distance from q to p is 12 metres.

then, distance travelled b y car m 2/3 will be:

                                              12 * ⅔

                                            = 24 / 3

                                            = 8 metres

and distance travelled by car n 3/4 will be:

                                              12 * ¾

                                            = 36 / 4

                                            = 9 metres

under these conditions, the fraction of distance b/w them will be:

                                            9 - 8

                                          = 1 metres

And under general conditions, (same as above)

                                       ¾ - ⅔  

             by taking L.C.M

                                    =  9-8/12

                                    = 1/12 fraction
