7/8 is bigger because if you multiply it by 2 it is 14/16 so it is bigger than 9/16

7/8 and 9/16

7*2/8*2 = 14/16

14/16 and 9/16

Now since we have a common denominator, we can compare the numerators.

14/16 is greater, so 7/8 is greater than 9/16

Answer: 7/8 is bigger

Answer:

Ben

Step-by-step explanation:

25 goodies = 20 minutes

27 goodies = 24 minutes

Let's use ratio, divide both of them by their minute

25/20 = 20/20

27/24 = 24/24

1.25 goodies = 1 minute

1.12 goodies = 1 minute

1.25 is bigger than 1.12.
