To determine which is bigger between one half and five eighths, we need to find a common denominator. In this case, the common denominator is 8. When both fractions are converted to have a common denominator, one half is equal to four eighths, and five eighths is already in the same form. Comparing them now, we see that five eighths is bigger than four eighths (or one half). Therefore, five eighths is the larger fraction.
It is five eighths.
Well, isn't that a lovely little math question! Half of five is two and a half, and half of three eights is one and a half eights. So, when you add them together, you get three and six eights. Just remember, there are no mistakes in math, only happy little accidents.
One eighth is 1/8. Two eighths (2/8) is two one eighths, that is, (1/8) + (1/8) or 2 x (1/8). So five eighths (5/8) would be five one eighths, that is, (1/8) + (1/8) + (1/8) + (1/8) + (1/8) or 5 x (1/8). There are five eighths (1/8) in five eighths (5/8).
four eighths would be one half or 50%
4 X 1/8th = 1/2 Basically, 4/8 in 1/2
One and five eighths is bigger than one and a half.
No it is not. 5 and 3 eighths are bigger by one eighth.
Answer One half is the same as four eighths, so five eighths is one eighth more.
