1/3 is the same as 5/15
2/5 is the same as 6/15
The first of the two is smaller.
One third is greater than two fifths.
three fifths is bigger.
Two fifths is 40% and one third is ~33% :)
1/3= .3 reapeating is smaller than 3/5= .6
One third = 5/15One fifth = 3/15, so two fifths = 6/15.So one third is less than two fifths.
Three fifths is bigger than one half. Two fifths is smaller than one half.
negative fourth fifths is less than negative one-third
two fifths is equal to 40% one third is only 33.33% so 40% is always better!
One half refers to 0.5 mathematically whereas three fifths refers to 0.6 and hence one half is smaller than three fifths.
One third of three fifths is one fifth.
Make them equivalent fractions with the same denominator then compare the numerators: 2/5 = 2x3/5x3 = 6/15 1/3 = 1x5/3x5 = 5/15 Two fifths is larger than one third as two fifths is equivalent to six fifteenths whereas one third is only equivalent to five fifteenths which is smaller than six fifteenths.
One third = 1/3 = 0.33333 Three Fifth = 3/5 = 0.6 Obviously Three Fifths is greater than One Third
