Question 617375
First find the difference between the two numbers 1/4 and 3/5


3/5 - 1/4 = 12/20 - 5/20 = 7/20


So this distance is 7/20


Now divide this distance by 7


(7/20)/7 = (7/20)*(1/7) = 7/140 = 1/20


So one-seventh of the distance from 1/4 to 3/5 is 1/20.


Finally, add this to the first number (the smaller number) 1/4 to get


1/4 + 1/20 = 5/20 + 1/20 = 6/20 = <font color="red">3/10</font>


So the answer is choice J
