5 over 8 is bigger (1/8 bigger)
4/9 is bigger than 3/8 or 0.444 is bigger than 0.375
2/3 66.6% and 5/8 62.5% thus 2/3 is bigger. Looked at another way, if we find the common denominator, we can make a direct comparison. 2/3 and 5/8 have 24 as a common denominator. If we convert them to 24ths, we'll have 16/24 and 15/24, respectively. And as 16/24 is larger than 15/24, the fraction 2/3 is larger.
2 cups is bigger than 8 fluid ounces. There are 8 ounces in a cup, so 2 cups is the same as 16 fluid ounces.
1/2 is bigger than 1/3
1/4 = 2/8 so 3/8 is bigger
8 yards is 2 feet bigger 8 x 3 = 24 24 - 22 = 2
2 / 3 = 0.667, 5 / 8 = 0.625
Well 3/8 converted into a decimal is 0.38 and 2/3 converted to a decimal is 0.67 . So logically 2/3 would be bigger then 3/8 because usually the smaller the fraction the bigger the percent or decimal is.
1/4=2/8 therefore 3/8 is bigger
3/4 = 6/8 (multiplying numerator and denominator by 2) and that is bigger than 5/8
1 over 2 is 0.5 3 over 8 is 0.375 1 over 2 is bigger Edit: yes 1/2 is greater 1/2 is half (0.5) 3/8 is less than half (0.375) you can also find it by using fractions 1/2 > 3/8 4/8 > 3/8 This question was answered by someone else who must have forgotten to send it off.
2/3. For further clarification, message me on my message board. Thanks!
6 out of 8 is bigger: 6 out of 8= 75% 3 out of 9= 33%
Well5/8 is equal to 15/242/3 is equal to 16/24
no. if you take 2-3 and make it a fraction (2/3) and do the same thing to 3-4 (3/4) this is what you do....... OK, Line them up so it''s 2/3 3/4. multiply the bottom two (3*4=12). then do the same to the top (3*3=9 and 4*2=8) so it would look like this 8/12 9/12 since the bottom two are the same, the largest one is the biggest. 9 is bigger than 8 so they are not equal. so no 2/3 can not be bigger. -hope that helps ;)
3/4 is 6/8 so that is bigger than 3/8
