Question

Determine whether each relationship below is true or false.

Answer 1

Answer:

1. True

2. False

3. True

4. False

5. True

Step-by-step explanation:

For 1, you want to see the reduced fraction of 2/6 so you want to divide 2/6 by 2, it is 1/3 and 2/3 is greater than 1/3.

For 2, you want to multiply 5 by 2. and then do the same thing for 6, 6 x 2. Now you want to see if they match.

For 3, you want to make both fractions into decimals so 1/8 is 0.125 and 1/4 is 0.25 and see which is larger.

For 4, you want to see if you can simplify any of them. 2/4 can be simplifed to 1/2. So, it is false because you can see that 2/4 is the same as 1/2

For 5, you want to divide both fractions by 2, so 4/10 would be 2/5 and 4/6 would be 2/3. So it is true.
