Answer:
Multiply the numbers until you get the same denominator (Bottom number) for both fractions. I will do #1 to show you.
1/3 1/2
Both 3 and 2 go into 6, so I will use that.
When multiplying the bottom , you have to do the same to the top, so...
2/6 OR 3/6
3/6 is greater, so that is the answer.
Therefore, 1/2 is more
Another way you can do this is to draw a pizza, a section off parts of it according to the fractions.
Hope this helped.
Answer: 1/3
Explanation:
1/12 of the squad are suspended:
1/12 x 24 = 24/12 = 2
So 2 player are suspended
24 - 2 = 22 player
And some are injured leaving 14 left to play:
22 - 14 = 8 players injured
So 8/24 is the fraction of injured player.
But 8/24 = 1/3 so we can say 1/3 of the whole squad are injured.
Turn them into percentages:
2/6=1/3=33.333%
5/12=42%
3/7=43%
4/10=2/5=40%
Now put them in order :)
2/6,4/10,5/12,3/7
