To know the answer, you need to find the common denominator. Common denominator is the multiple of a denominator which 2 or more fractions have the same denominator. The common denominator of 7/8 and 5/10 is 40 because 8*5=40 and 10*4=40.
7/8 times 5 equals 35/40 and 5/10 times 4 equals 20/40.
35/40 is greater than 20/40
So the answer is yes. 7/8 is greater than 5/10.
