Question

Which is the larger amount 4/10 of a dollar or 8/10 of a dollar

Answer 1

8/10 of a dollar is the correct answer

Answer 2

8/10 is larger, we can look at it two ways:
4/10 of a dollar is 40 cents, and 8/10 of a dollar is 80 cents, so we know 8/10 is larger; or:
8/10 would be the bigger fraction, so 8/10 of a dollar is larger.
