He was wrong because, although three is greater than five, the value of the three is in the ten thousands place, while the five is in the thousands place. Therefore, the correct answer would be that 36594 is greater than 5980.
Steps:
1. since the least common multiple of 8 and 4 is 8, you would have to make both of the denominators 8.
2. 2 times 4 equals 8, 2 times 3 equals 6
3. 35 3/4 now becomes 35 6/8
4. your new problem is 35 6/8 - 1/8
5. 6 -1= 5
6. your answer is 35 5/8
