I think you lost two matchsticks: that 5 should be 8.
Four and one half
To add one half to five-eighths, first convert one half to eighths. One half is equivalent to four-eighths. Then, add four-eighths to five-eighths: (4/8 + 5/8 = 9/8). Therefore, one half added to five-eighths equals nine-eighths, or 1 and 1/8.
Answer One half is the same as four eighths, so five eighths is one eighth more.
"What is four and a half plus three and five sixths": Eight and one third (8 1/3)
It is four 8ths which is also one half.
No, one half (1/2) is not greater than five eighths (5/8). In fact, one half is equivalent to four eighths (4/8), which is less than five eighths. Therefore, five eighths is greater than one half.
One half = three sixth, so the answer is two sixth.
Five eighths.
five and a half=5.5 four fifths=.8 since one divided by five is .2 and four .2's (4x.2)=.8 5.5x.8=4.4, or four and 2 fifths four and two fifths is the answer.

I'll bite: False. Four is four-fifths of five.
Neither!!
