    rahul bought more

    Step-by-step explanation:

    7 1/2 kg is the same as 15/2

    then you simplify 15/4 to 7.5/2

    now both fractions have same denominators so compare

    15 is bigger than 1.5

    Rahul has 3 3/4 more rice than Reena

    Step-by-step explanation:

    first you have to make the two fractions a mixed fraction or improper fraction

    7 1/2 = 15/2

    15/4 = 15/4

    now you have to see if they have the same denominator, they don't have the same denominator

    the denominator i choose was 4

    15/2 times 2/2 = 30/4

    15/4 = 15/4

    now you have to subtract the two fraction, to know the difference between them

    30/4-15/4 = 15/4 or 3 3/4
