Question

Show me how to solve fraction which is greater 5/8 or 2/8

Answer 1

First, we converted each fraction into decimal numbers. You do this by dividing the numerator by the denominator for each fraction as illustrated below:
5/8 = 0.632/8 = 0.25
Then, we compared the two decimal numbers to get the answer.
0.25 is not greater than 0.63. Therefore, 2/8 is not greater than 5/8.

Answer 2

Here is your answer:

1. As you can see both fractions have the same denominator 5/8 and 2/8 so if you wanted to split a pie you would see that 5/8 is greater since how there is more pieces so....

" $\frac{5}{8} \geq \frac{2}{8}$ "

2. In order to solve fractions you have to find the common denominator then add but since how both denominators are the same you can just add the numerators.

" $\frac{5}{8} +\frac{2}{8} = \frac{7}{8}$ "

Hope this helps!
