Question

Why is 1/6 greater than 1/8 but less than 1/3

Answer 1

You can read fractions as one number divided by another. So 1/6 is equivalent to 1 divided by 6. It is then selfevident that the larger the denominator the smaller the number. If you have one cake and divide it between 3, 6 or eight people, three people will get a larger slice than 6 people sharing the same cake. And 6 people will get a larger slice than 8 people dividing the same cake.

Answer 2

Because u have to focus on that last number if the last number is greater or less thats the answer
