7/10 & 5/8
To compare fractions, bring to comm denominator. In this case '40' , because 5 x 8 = 40 AND 4 X 10 = 40
Cross Multiply the numerators.
7(4)/10(4) & 5(5)/8(5)
28/40 & 25/40
Compare the numerators.
Clearly 28 > 25
Hence
28/40 > 25/40
Hence it follows that
7/10 > 5/8
Yes, seven eighths is greater than five tenths. Five tenths, or one half, expressed in eighths would be four eighths. Since seven is greater than four, seven eighths is greater than four eighths (or five tenths). One easy way to know is use a calculator and do the division (seven divided by eight, and five divided by ten); in decimal form the higher value may be more quickly apparent when compared.
Yes.
yep
I thought the figure was seven-tenths, which is close to five-eighths...
Eight tenths is greater. Eight tenths = 80%. Five eighths = 62.5%

Yes.
Yes it is. Just like 7 is greater than 5.
yes
five and six tenths = 56/10 twenty seven fifths = 27/5 = 54/10 so answer is yes five and six tenths is greater by two tenths or one fifth
three
5/9 = .555 7/8 = .875 Thereby, five ninths is less than seven eighths.
