Alright!
In order to properly compare these numbers, they need to look the same!
Lets change 2 8/24 into a <em>decimal.</em>
To do this, we need to convert it into an <u>improper fraction </u>

2 × 24 = 48
48 + 8 = 56
Now, lets use a calculator to see what 56/24 is!
56 ÷ 24 = 2.33
237.5 is GREATER than
