no, 2/3 is the same as 6/9
There are 9 ninths in a unit - seven ninths is less than nine ninths, so 7/9 <1 To visualise it, try this: Cut a pizza into nine equal slices - if they are not equal, pretend they are. If you take seven of these nine slices, you have seven ninths of a pizza. Is that not less than the whole ONE?
5/9 = .555 7/8 = .875 Thereby, five ninths is less than seven eighths.
Two thirds is not larger than four fifths. It's almost 17% smaller.
