1/5 closer to the observatory than Jimmy.

Step-by-step explanation:

If the question is asking how much closer to the observatory Sylvia is than Jimmy, we can use simple math.

Jimmy's distance is 6/10.

However, Sylvia's is 2/5. But we can turn that into a fraction with the same denominator as Jimmy's distance.

It would be 4/10.

Subtracting 4/10 from 6/10, you get 2/10, or 1/5.

Sylvia is 1/5 closer to the observatory than Jimmy.
