it is part B because it is greater part

Answer:

PART A: 5/10

PART B: 1/10 greater

Step-by-step explanation:

PART A:

To find the fraction, you add the dunk tanks and games together. This is because you want to know what fraction of them combined, so it is 1/10 + 4/10, the given fractions of the games. Because these already share a common denominator, you would add the numerators, but the denominators stay the same, meaning the answer is 5/10.

PART B:

You know that the games make up 4/10 of the carnival, and student exhibits 5/10 of the carnival. Because they have the same denominator, you can subtract the fractions. You want to know the difference, so you do 5/10 - 4/10. This gives you the answer of 1/10. You could use a model to find the answer by making a bar graph. You can compare the bars of the sections you are looking at, and you can see the difference.
