Ответ:
The first carpenter has done 25/56 more of the fence than the second carpenter.
Step-by-step explanation:
First, convert the fractions to an equal base:
4/7 * 8/8 = 32/56
1/8 * 7/7 = 7/56
The first carpenter did 32/56 of the work so far, and the second one has done 7/56.
To find the difference, subtract the number of the second carpenter from the first.
32/56 - 7/56 = 25/56
