Answer:Fluffy's tail is \(\frac{1}{12}\) meter longer than Fireball's.
Step-by-step explanation:
It is given Fluffy and Fireball tails are \(\frac{1}{3} and \frac{1}{4}\) meters long.
We need to find how long is Fluffy's tail than Fireball's.
To find that we subtract the two fractions:
\(\frac{1}{3} -\frac{1}{4}\)
To subtract the fractions we first find the common denominator.The Least common multiple of 3 and 4 is 12.Writing equivalent fractions with denominator 12 we have:
\(\frac{1}{3} -\frac{1}{4} =\frac{4}{12} -\frac{3}{12}\)
Denominators same numerators can be subtracted:
\(\frac{4-3}{12} =\frac{1}{12}\)
Fluffy's tail is \(\frac{1}{12}\) meter longer than Fireball's.
