    B)  \[1\frac{5}{6}\]feet       

    C)         \[1\frac{5}{12}\]feet                 

    D)         \[\frac{5}{12}\]feet

    Correct Answer: C

    Solution :

    Nitin jumped \[4\frac{7}{12}\] feet i.e. \[\frac{55}{12}\]feet Anil jumped \[3\frac{1}{6}\] feet i.e. \[\frac{19}{6}\] feet \[\therefore \]Difference \[=\frac{55}{12}-\frac{19}{6}=\frac{55-38}{12}\] \[=\frac{17}{12}=1\frac{5}{12}\] feet So, Nitin jump \[1\frac{5}{12}\] feet farther than Anil.
