Which fraction is bigger 2/6 or 2/4

2/4 is the larger fraction. Think of a candy bar that is cut into 4 equal pieces. Now think of the same sized candy bar cut into 6 pieces. The candy bar that has been cut into sixths has more pieces but they are smaller pieces that the candy bar cut into fourths. **When comparing fractions, if the numerators are the same (like they are in this problem) look at the denominators. Whichever fraction has the greater number is actually going to be the smaller fraction (more pieces, but smaller pieces). If the denominators are the same, then the fraction that has the greater number in the numerator will be the larger fraction (more same-sized pieces than the other fraction) Hope that helps!

EastWind [94]
<h3>Answer:   433.5 square cm</h3>

X = 9
y = 6

Step by step:

Divide 15 by 2: 15 ÷ 2 = 7.5
Subtract 0.5 from 7.5 (this will later be added back): 7.5 - 0.5 = 7
Subtract 1 from 7 (she wants to buy at least 2 more children books): 7 - 1 = 6
Subtract 6 from 15 (6 being the number of puzzle books, 15 being the total number of items): 15 - 6 = 9 (number of children books)
