Julie scored higher on her math test with approximately 91.3% compared to 90.625% on her science test. Comparing the fractions 23 21 ​ and 32 29 ​ requires evaluating their ratios, not just their numerators. To understand her overall performance, Julie should consider these percentage scores and the context of each test's difficulty.
