They are equal. If you take 5/10 and reduce it to its lowest terms, you get 1/2.
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
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
no a half is five tenths 1/2 = 5/10 which is less than 7/10.
5 is exactly half of ten, and 9 is exactly half of 18. So 5/10 = 1/2 = 9/18 They are the same.
less than
1 is greater than tenths
!less by one twelfth
Four tenths is less than four hundred twenty-five thousandths. 4/10 < 425/1000 0.400 < 0.425
To compare 6 tenths and 1 half, we need to convert them to a common denominator. 6 tenths is equivalent to 3 fifths, and 1 half is equivalent to 5 tenths. Therefore, 6 tenths (3 fifths) is less than 1 half (5 tenths) because 3 is less than 5.
Its less than 9 tenths.
