Answer:

Paul squash with 9/20 part of squash and 11/20 parts of waterStep-by-step explanation:

3/7 part of squash :- Henry

9/20 parts of squash:-Paul

When we compare the 2 quantities we first find there LCM.

So LCM of 7 and 20 is 140

Now will convert them to equal unit and then compare

So ,

60/140 and 63/140

60 is less than 63

So the one with 63 amount of squash should be tastier than that of 60 amount of squash...
