Hank is.

If you convert 2/3 to the denominator 9, then you'll get 6/9. 7/9>6/9.

Hank is closer to finishing his homework. Here is why To answer this question you have to make both of the fractions have a common denominator. Since 3 can go into 9 you can just change the second fraction. You would divide the denominater by 3 so you get 9 and whatever you do to the denominater you would have to do to the numerator. So you would get 6/9. Hank has 7/9 and Billy only has 6/9 so Hank is closer

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that probability for any event = $\dfrac{\text{Number of favorable outcomes}}{\text{Total outcomes}}$

Given : Charlotte has 6 cherry candies, 3 grape candies, and 3 lime candies.

I..e Total pieces of candies she has = 6+3+3= 12

Now , If Charlotte randomly pulls one piece of candy out of the bag, what is the probability that it will be cherry is given by :-

$\text{P(cherry)}=\dfrac{\text{Number of cherries}}{\text{Total candies}}\\\\=\dfrac{6}{12}\\\\=\dfrac{1}{2}$

Hence, the probability that it will be cherry is $\dfrac{1}{2}$ .
