To compare fractions, we must first make sure they have the same denominator. In this case, 8 and 20 have the lowest common multiple of 40 so that would be a good denominator to use. Multiply top and bottom of the first fraction by 5 and we get 35/40. Multiply top and bottom of the second fraction by 2 and we get 38/40.

It is not clear that 19/20 is greater than 7/8.
