To compare fractions, give them the same denominator.

1/3=5/15

2/5=6/15

6>5, so 6/15>5/15.

2/5>1/3

What is is the greater number 2fiths or 1third?

first you need a common denominator, 2/5 1/3 if you multiply the denominators together, then they will be common: (2*3)/(5*3) (1*5)/(3*5) so that simplifies to 6/15 and 5/15, so 2/5 is bigger by just 1/15 Or, if you want to take a different approach, then you could put them into decimals. 2/5=.4 1/3=.333333333333333333333333333333333333333333333333333... so, either way, you come up with the same answer, 2/5 is larger
