Question

Susie use the one have to help compare 1/3 to 3/5 and to help in comparing 3/7 with 2/3 explain how 1/2 helps determine which fraction is greater than each combination

Answer 1

The fraction $\frac{3}{5}$ and $\frac{2}{3}$ are the greatest in each combination.

Explanation:

Comparing the fraction $\frac{1}{2}$ with $\frac{1}{3}$ and $\frac{3}{5}$ to find the greatest value.

The fraction $\frac{1}{2}>\frac{1}{3}$ and $\frac{1}{2}$

Thus, $\frac{1}{3}$

Hence, $\frac{3}{5}$ is the greatest value in this combination.

Also, Comparing the fraction $\frac{1}{2}$ with $\frac{3}{7}$ and $\frac{2}{3}$ to find the greatest value.

The fraction $\frac{1}{2}>\frac{3}{7}$ and $\frac{1}{2}$

Thus, $\frac{3}{7}$

Hence, $\frac{2}{3}$ is the greatest value in this combination.
