No.
131/3
2 2/3
Yes, seven eighths (7/8) is bigger than two thirds (2/3). When both fractions are converted to a common denominator, 7/8 equals 0.875 and 2/3 equals approximately 0.667. Since 0.875 is greater than 0.667, seven eighths is indeed larger than two thirds.
Two thirds.
Yes, seven-eighths (7/8) is greater than two-thirds (2/3). When you compare the two fractions, 7/8 equals 0.875, while 2/3 equals approximately 0.667. Since 0.875 is greater than 0.667, seven-eighths is indeed greater than two-thirds.
three eighths, two thirds, four fifths.
7/8-2/3=5/24
The same
2/3 or 5/8 Bring both fraction to a common denomiator of 3 x 8 = 24 Then bring the fractions to their equivalent values . Hence 2/3 & 5/8 => 16/24 & 15/24 We now compare the numerators (top numbers) Clearly 16 > 15 Hence 16/24 > 15/24 Hence it follows 16/24 > 15/24 => 2/3 > 5/8 Another method is to convert both fractions to decimals 2/3 = 0.666.... ~ 0.667 5/8 = 0.625 Hence 0.667 & 0.625 Drop the decimal points and the prefix zeroes. 667 & 625 Clearly 667 > 625 . Henceit follows that 2/3 > 5/8 As above.
