There are 375 fifteenths in 25.
One-third is the same as five-fifteenths. Two-fifths is the same as six-fifteenths. Five-fifteenths plus six-fifteenths is eleven-fifteenths. One, or fifteen-fifteenths, minus eleven-fifteenths is four-fifteenths.
To compare one fifth (1/5) and four fifteenths (4/15), we can convert them to a common denominator. One fifth is equivalent to three fifteenths (3/15). Since three fifteenths is less than four fifteenths, one fifth is not greater than four fifteenths.
