5 is exactly half of ten, and 9 is exactly half of 18.
So 5/10 = 1/2 = 9/18
They are the same.
Five tenths is equal to five tenths. In decimal form, both are represented as 0.5, meaning they are the same value. Therefore, five tenths is neither greater than nor less than five tenths; they are equal.
less than
five and six tenths = 56/10 twenty seven fifths = 27/5 = 54/10 so answer is yes five and six tenths is greater by two tenths or one fifth
Think about pie or pizza. Cut it in seventeenths and eighteenths. Which slice is bigger, seventeenths or eighteenths? Seventeenths, because the number is less than eighteen by 1.
1 is greater than tenths
Four tenths is less than four hundred twenty-five thousandths. 4/10 < 425/1000 0.400 < 0.425
Its less than 9 tenths.
greater than
5/10 equals 1/2, therefore 1/3 is greater.
Yes, five ones and eight tenths is less than fifty-eight tenths. Five ones is equal to 5, and eight tenths is 0.8, so together they equal 5.8. Fifty-eight tenths is equivalent to 5.8 as well, but since the question asks if it is less, the answer is no. Therefore, five ones and eight tenths is not less than fifty-eight tenths; they are equal.
One half is five tenths. One fifth is two tenths. One half less one fifths is five tenths less two tenths, or three tenths. .5 - .2 = .3
They are equal. If you take 5/10 and reduce it to its lowest terms, you get 1/2.
