you have to compare the common fractions
convert fractions to decimal then just compare them,and then put them in order!:)
The smaller fraction has the smaller numerator.
I am not entirely sure what you mean, but if you need to add, subtract, or compare two fractions, they need to have the same denominator.
Because when you compare fractions with the same denominators, you do not have to find the least common denominator (LCM or LCD).
It's easier to compare 1/3 and 1/4 when you convert them to the equivalent fractions 4/12 and 3/12
(2/3)2
It may be simplest to convert them all to a common form: rational fractions, decimal fractions or percentages and then compare them. When you are more expert, you may be able to convert them pairwise into a common basis and compare.
To compare fractions, convert them to a common denominator - in this case, a denominator of 8 will work.To compare fractions, convert them to a common denominator - in this case, a denominator of 8 will work.To compare fractions, convert them to a common denominator - in this case, a denominator of 8 will work.To compare fractions, convert them to a common denominator - in this case, a denominator of 8 will work.

Two ways: convert them to decimals or convert them to similar fractions and compare the numerators.
you compare them
To compare if they are the same (ie equivalent fractions), make them both into equivalent fractions with the same denominator and compare the numerators. To find equivalent fractions multiply (or divide) both the numerator and denominator by the same number. → 1/2 = (1×2)/(2×2) = 2/4 → 3/4 = 3/4 The two fractions now have the same denominator (4), so compare their numerators: ½ now has a numerator of 2 whereas ¾ (still ) has a numerator of 3. 2 does not equal 3 so ½ does not equal ¾; ie ½ and ¾ are not equivalent fractions.
You can compare similar fractions by looking at their numerators. You can compare dissimilar fractions by converting them to similar fractions and looking at their numerators. You can convert a dissimilar fraction to a similar fraction by finding the least common denominator.
You divide them. For instance, to compare 1:3 against 3:5, treat them as fractions (1/3 and 3/5) and divide, in this case getting 5/9, which says that 1:3 is slightly more than half of 3:5. Remember that you can divide fractions by inverting one of them and multiplying - 1/3 divided by 3/5 is the same as 1/3 multiplied by 5/3.
you have to compare the common fractions
You can either convert fractions to decimals and compare the decimal numbers; find equivalent fractions with the same denominator and then compare numerators or find equivalent fractions with the same numerator and then compare denominators.
