Answer:

Yes, 1/4 is bigger than 1/8.

Step-by-step explanation:

So, look at it this way.

1/4, the number 4 has bigger parts than 8. The denominator in 8 has smaller parts. I'm so bad at explaining, but 1/4 is bigger then 1/8.

Here's another way.

Try to get a common denominator. You have to do the same thing to the top when you do something to the bottom.

Common denominators: 2/8.

(Denominator: 8 x 2) (Numerator: 1 x 2) Now, we do not have to change the 1/8. As you can see, now we have 2/8 and 1/8. So, the numerator for 1/4 AKA 2/8 is bigger then 1/8.

I'm so sorry if you do not understand, again and so bad at explaining. It sounds like you are in a younger grade, and I understand. I hope this helps!

Yes, 1/4 is greater than 1/8.

To find out which one is greater, you cross multiply.

8            4
  1       1
  --  x  --
  4       8

The 8 on top of 1/4 shows that is greater than the 4 on top of 1/8.

Hope that helps!
