To compare fractions, do one of the following:
1. Convert to a common denominator; in this example, that may be 120. (It need not be the least common denominator; any common denominator will do, so you can just multiply both denominators.)
2. Use a calculator to convert to decimal. In this case, 5 divided by 8, and 7 divided by 15.
5/8 is bigger.
Seven eighths is bigger. 2\5 < 7\8
divide eight into 5 and then divide 15 into 7 and compare the answers.
(2/15) - (7/15) = -5/15 = -1/3
