Answer:

[tex]\huge\boxed{\sf \frac{1}{12} \ in.}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Length of green caterpillar = 3/4 in.

Length of orange caterpillar = 2/3 in.

  • To find how much longer was the green caterpillar than the orange one, we will subtract the length of orange caterpillar from the green one.

Solution:

[tex]\displaystyle = \frac{3}{4} - \frac{2}{3} \\\\LCM = 4 \times \ 3 = 12\\\\= \frac{(3 \times 3 ) - (2 \times 4)}{12} \\\\= \frac{9-8}{12} \\\\= \frac{1}{12} \ in.\\\\\rule[225]{225}{2}[/tex]
