Answer:

The screen of phone B is wider because [tex]5\frac{1}{3}[/tex]  is greater than 5.3.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that

The width of screen of phone A=5.3 cm

The width of screen of phone B=[tex]5\frac{1}{3}[/tex] cm

We have to find the statement explains which phone has the wider screen.

The width of screen of phone B=[tex]5+\frac{1}{3}[/tex] cm

The width of screen of phone B=[tex]5+0.33[/tex] cm

The width of screen of phone B=5.33 cm

Now, we make first like decimal number and then  we will compare.

Now, write zero at end of number in 5.3

Then, the number becomes 5.30 .

The hundredth part 3 in  5.33 is greater than hundredth part 0 of 5.30.

Therefore, 5.33 >5.30

Hence, the screen of phone B is wider because [tex]5\frac{1}{3}[/tex] >5.3.
