How about we put the fractions into decimals?

1/2 is 0.5
2/3 is 0.66666(6)

So we need to find something that is between them.

the denominator can't be 2, because bigger than 1/2 is 2/2, which is 1 and is bigger than 0.6

it also  can't be 3, because smaller than 2/3 is 1/2, which is 0.333... and is smaller than 0.5.

Can it be 4? we can't have 2/4 (it's the same as 1/2), or 3/4, it's 0.75, and it's bigger than 0.666...


how about 5?

2/5=0.4,no, too small

3/5=0.6- perfect! that's the answer!

Differential justice
r-ruslan [8.4K]

Our legal system aims to embody the three ideals of access, fairness, and equality.

<h3>Which is the definition of justice?</h3>

Fairness and justice are often used interchangeably. Almost everyone cares about justice, despite the fact that it has different meanings for different groups. For contrast, gender equality holds that everyone should have equal access to financial, legal, and chances to meet regardless of their race, gender, or religion.

<h3>Is Justice still operating?</h3>

Parents of young girls now have a new back-to-school choice from Walmart: the Justice label is back. As part of Super Retail Group's bankruptcy, the Justice brand, which targets girls aged 6 to 12, closed its outlets. Walmart will offer more than 130 Justice goods in 2,400 retail stores and online
