Two thirds are greater than three fifths.
In order to answer this we have to convert both fractions into a common form to see which is bigger. To do this:
* multiply the denominator (the number at the bottom of a fraction) of each fraction together to get a new 'common' denominator.
* divide the new common denominator by the old denominator and multiply the result by the numerator (the number at the top) of the fraction you are converting to get a new numerator.
So if we do this our common denominator is 15 (3 times 5). We can then convert two thirds in to fifteenths by dividing 15 by 3 (=5) and multiplying by 2 (=10). Thus 2/3 = 10/15.
When we do this for three fifths we get: 15 divided by 5 times 3 = 9.
Thus 3/5 equals 9/15.
Therefore 2/3 is greater than 3/5 as 10/15 is greater than 9/15.

There are infinitely many fractions greater than two fifths; the most obvious answer would be three fifths. A half is also greater than two fifths.
What is two and two thirds divided by one and three fifths?
To divide two and two thirds by one and three fifths, we first need to convert the mixed numbers to improper fractions. Two and two thirds is equivalent to 8/3, and one and three fifths is equivalent to 8/5. Then, we divide 8/3 by 8/5 by multiplying by the reciprocal of the second fraction. This gives us (8/3) ÷ (8/5) = (8/3) * (5/8) = 40/24, which simplifies to 5/3 or 1 and 2/3.
