I thought the figure was seven-tenths, which is close to five-eighths...
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.
44/50, 89/100
seven tenths
3/8 = 6/16 so no, 7/16 is bigger
Seven eights is slightly larger then five sixths.

No! The fraction seven eighths is bigger than the fraction four fifths.
Yes.
Set up a proportion and multiply up and across. 3/8=7/10 30 ? 56 so 7/10 is bigger
40 is the LCD.
three tenths
7/8
seven eighths
Seven eighths is bigger. 2\5 < 7\8
