------------------------------------------------------
Change the denominators to be the same
------------------------------------------------------
5/ 8 = 5/8
7/4 = 14/8

Since the denominators are the same, the larger the numerator, the larger the fraction. Therefore 14/8 (7/4) is greater than 5/8.

14/8 > 5/8
7/4 > 5/8

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Answer: The grasshopper that is 7/4 unit long is longer

Gnom [1K]

Answer:

1. 23/4 , 2. 5.555... , 3. 5 1/2 , 4. √28

you want to make them all into decimals so you can compare then easier

23/4 would be 5.75

√28 (just put it in a calculator) would be 5.29

5 1/2 would be 5.5 (make it into a improper fraction 11/2 then do 11/2 and you get 5.5)

and you have 5.555.

so...

5.75

5.29

5.5

5.55555

first is 5.75 it's bigger because of the .(75)

then 5.555 because it's .(55)

then 5.5 because it's .(50)

and the last one 5.(29)
