3w + 8 - w = 4w - 2(w - 4)
is an identity
3w-w + 8 = 4w - 2w + 8
2w + 8 = 2w + 8
2w - 2w = 8 - 8
0 = 0
zero equal to zero implies that any value of w satisfies the statement 3w + 8 - w = 4w - 2(w - 4) hence it is an identity.

If two fractions have the same denominator, that means the total number of parts is the same. For example, you have two batches of cookies, which each have 8 cookies.
But the numerator tells you the number of parts you are dealing with. Going back to our cookie example, say you ate 3 cookies and your little brother only had 1. If you ate 3 cookies, you ate 3/8 of the cookies. Your little brother ate 1/8 of the cookies.
So, which one is the greatest fraction? In this case, who had more cookies? That would be you. So, the greater numerator means a greater fraction.
Answer: the fraction with the greater numerator
