3/5 [?] 12/20
First you need to get the denominator on both sides the same. You can do this one of two ways:
The first is to make the denominator of 3/5 equal to 20.
5 x 4 = 20
So multiply both the top and the bottom by 4.
4/4 x 3/5 = 12/20
12/20 = 12/20
The answer is they are equal, not greater than.
The other way you could do this is to simplify 12/20. First, they are both even, so you can divide the numerator anddetonatorboth by 2.
Numerator: 12/2 = 6
Denominator: 20/2 = 10
So now we have 6/10, but once again they are both even, so we can divide by 2 again.
Numerator: 6/2 = 3
Denominator: 10/2 = 5
Now we have 3/5. Once again: 3/5 = 3/5.

No.
When you see those fractions on paper and you read them, you say "two fifths" and "three fifths". When you hear that, you immediately realize that three of anything is always greater than two of the same thing.
No.
Yes
three fifths is bigger.
are you serious. what grade are you in, birth? four-fifths is greater than three-tenths.
There are infinitely many fractions greater than two fifths; the most obvious answer would be three fifths. A half is also greater than two fifths.
No.
three fifths is less than six sevenths
