There are: 7/8 divided by 2/3 = 21/16 or 1.3125
five twentyfourths
Greater
1/4 (one fourth)
two thirds
2/3 ÷ 7/8 = 16/21
Five eights plus two thirds minus one fourth is equal to 1.04
2/8 or 2/3 Bring both fractions to equivaloent fractions, with the SAME denomoniator. The same denominator is 8 x 3 = 24 Hence 2/8 & 2/3 => 6/24 & 16/24 We now compare the numertors(top number). Clearly 16 > 6 Hence it follows that 16/24 > 6/24 => 2/3 > 2/8 NB 2/8 is an equivlanet fraction and can be reduced to 1/4 However it still remains as 2/3 > 1/4
5/12
Either 24 and 2 thirds or 1 and a 24th, depending on whether you meant eights or eighths.
the answer is to the question ' Marcia has seven eights of a pound of candy she gives two fifths of it to lucinda how much candy does she have left?' is five thirds left.
Sixteen eights equal two thirds
two thirds = 0.666 while three eighths = 0.375 therefore two thirds is larger by far
