Is 2/3 greater than 4/8

Find a common denominator to begin. The common denominator is the LCM of both denominators. In this case, the common denominator will be 24.

Now, multiply the numerator by the number you multiplied the denominator. For 2/3, you multiplied 3 by 8, so multiply 2 by 8 to get 16. The fraction is now 16/24. Multiply 4 by 3 since you multiplied 8 by 3 to get 24. You will get 12 and the fraction will become 12/24.

Then, compare. 16/24 is closer to 24/24, or one whole, so 16/24, or 2/3, is greater.

Ok a strategy I use is I make the fractions into decimals like money and then I compare which one is bigger. So 2/3 as a decimal is 1.5 and 4/8 as a decimal is 2. So 4/8 is greater than 2/3. The way I got my answer was that I divided 3 into 2 and got 0.5 and I divided 8 into 4 and that 2. I hoped I helped.

What two partial products would you add to find 513 x 46
Afina-wow [57]
First, let me do the Mathematical part of that, and then I shall explain the theory behind it.

Mathematical part:
We are going to multiply 513 with 46. So the two partial products that we are going to choose are 40 and 6.

Multiply 513 with 6 first.

    513
    x46
--------------------------
      18 (as 6*3 = 18)
      60 (as 6*10 = 60; In 513, the digit at tenths place is 1, so 1*10=10)
  3000 (as 6*500 = 3000; In 513, 5 is at hundredth place, so 5*100=500)
    120 (as 40*3 = 120; since 4 is at the tenth place, so 4*10=40)
    400 (as 40*10 = 400)
20000 (as 40*500 = 20000)
--------------------------
23598 (Add all of them)


Theory:
As you can see above that we have chosen the two partial products individually which are 6 and 40. Since 4 in 46 is in tenth place, we have to consider it 40 (since 4*10 = 40). One by one, we first multiply 6 with 513. Then we move to the tenth place, and multiply 513 with 40. At the end, we have added all the results we found after multiplication.

Check: If we check the multiplication result by using the calculator, we would get the same result (23598).

Another Method (instant):
513 * (40+6) = (513*40) + (513*6) = 23598.
