Question

Is 5/8 greater than or less than 5/16

Answer 1

Answer: 5/8 > 5/16

Why 5/8 is bigger? The reason why it's bigger it has more space.

Example: Cutting a pizza into 8 for 5 people.

Non-Example: Cutting a pizza into 16 for 5 people.

The people at the party will get the biggest slice which is in the 8

Serving 16 then they will get the smallest.

Answer 2

Because 5/8 is in less portions than 5/16, 5/8 is greater than 5/16.
