No, 2 1/4 does not equal 7/8. 7/8 equals .88
==============================
-- First of all, you should be able to instantly recognize that "two and one fourth"
is more than ' 1 ', but "seven eighths" is less than ' 1 ', so they can't be equal.
-- "Two and one fourth" is the same as eighteen eighths.
One fourth is equivalent to two eighths so total is nine eighths ie one and one-eighth.
No, three eighths is larger than one fourth. One fourth is equal to two eighths, and is one eighth smaller than three eighths.
three eighths
nine eighths or one and one eighth.
What is What is three eighths plus one fourth?
seven eighths 1/4 = 2/8 2/8 + 5/8 = 7/8
It is seven and three eighths
One Fourth is equal to two eighths.
No one-half equals four-eighths so that means seven-eighths is greater than one-half(four eighths)
5/8
Two and three-eighths plus one and seven-eighths equals four and two-eighths, which can be to four and one-fourth. Here's how to find the answer. First, you add the two whole numbers together, giving you three. Next, since you are adding two fractions with the same denominator, you add the numerators together, which gives you ten eighths. You then convert that to one and two eighths and add the one to three which is four. Finally, you divide both the numerator and the denominator by two. The final answer is four and one-fourth.
One minus one eighth is seven eighths.
