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

258/300=0.86

now, to find the percent, you simply convert the decimal:
0.86 represents 86 hundredths (which is the second place after the decimal point)
which can also be stated at 86%
