seventeen over fifteen
because the common denominator of 5 and 3 is 15
think about it like this:
4/5x3, 4x3=12, 5x3=15
1/3x5, 1x5=5, 3x5=15
so you get 12/15+5/15 see how they simplify back?
then add the numerators and keep the denominator and you get 17/15 or 1 and 2/15
2 and 2/5
four fifths
Learn your math...JK 6 and four fifths is written like so: 6.4 so two fifths.
Convert them to a common denominator, which in this case is 35 (5 x 7...the two denominators multiplied), so 3/5 becomes 21/35 and 4/7 becomes 20/35, therefore three fifths is greater than four sevenths.
To compare the sizes of fractions, we need to find a common denominator. In this case, the least common multiple of 5 and 20 is 20. Converting four fifths to have a denominator of 20, we get 16/20. Comparing 16/20 to 17/20, we see that 17/20 is bigger than 16/20. Therefore, seventeen twentieths is bigger than four fifths.

The common denominator of four fifths and two ninths is 45.

15 and two thirds plus four fifths = one two fiftenth

The way you can tell four fifths is simplified is because the numerator (4) is one less than the denominator (5).
No. To compare fractions, you can convert them to a common denominator (in this case, fifteenths). You can also use a calculator to convert each fraction to a decimal.

4/10 Or Four Tenths
To compare four fifths and three tenths, we need to have a common denominator. In this case, the least common denominator is 10. When both fractions are converted to have a denominator of 10, four fifths becomes 8/10 and three tenths becomes 3/10. Therefore, 8/10 (four fifths) is greater than 3/10 (three tenths).
To find out how many fifths are in sixteen twentieths, you need to first simplify both fractions. Sixteen twentieths simplifies to four fifths by dividing both the numerator and denominator by four. Therefore, sixteen twentieths is equivalent to four fifths.
