How can you tell wheather a fraction is greater than less than or equal to one half?

To compare two fractions (check which one is greater), you have the following options: 1. Convert the fractions to a common denominator. Example: compare 2/3 and 1/2. Common denominator is 6. 2/3 is equal to 4/6, and 1/2 is equal to 3/6, so 2/3 is greater. 2. Convert to decimal. This can be done quickly on a calculator. Using the same example as above, 2/3 is 0.6666666... and 1/2 is 0.5, so 2/3 is greater.
