Hi,

Here is the solution...

We convert this fraction into percentage.

To convert the fraction into percentage, we need to multiply the fraction by 100.

Math test score = [tex]\frac{21}{23} *100 = \frac{2100}{23} = 91.30[/tex]%

Science test score = [tex]\frac{29}{32} *100 = \frac{2900}{32} = 90.63[/tex]%

Now you can compare the percentage.

Julie scored higher in Math test.

Hope you will understand the steps.

Thank you. :)
