Answer 1

Answer:

Option a. >

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : Statement  $\frac{1}{2} ? \frac{2}{5}$

To find : Insert the sign to make the statment true?

Solution:

We know,

The value $\frac{1}{2}$ and $\frac{2}{5}$ are not equal.

So, No equality sign.

Now,  $\frac{1}{2}=0.5$

$\frac{2}{5}=0.4$

And $0.5>0.4$

which means $\frac{1}{2}>\frac{2}{5}$

Therefore, Option a is correct.

Answer 2

A. > because 1/2 is more than 2/5

1/2 = 0.5
2/5 = 0.4
