5/8 is bigger.
A simple method to see why is as follows:
5/8 > 4/8 = 1/2
7/15 < 7/14 = 1/2
So 7/15 < 1/2 < 5/8.
You could, of course, rename both fractions to their common denominator, 120, and do lots of calculations before coming to the same conclusion.
You can tell by looking at them that 5/8 is bigger, since 5 is more than half of 8, and 7 is less than half of 15, but if you want the math... 5/8 = 75/120 7/15 = 56/120 75 is bigger than 56.
14/15: In decimal, 7/8 is .875 In decimal, 14/15 is .9333 (threes go on forever)
7/8
7/87/8 = 35/404/5 = 32/40thus 7/8 is bigger than 4/5
So the question is, is 5/8 > 7/12. Multiply by 8: is 5 > 14/3? Now multiply by 3: is 15 > 14? Yes it is, so 5/8 > 7/12.
You can tell by looking at them that 5/8 is bigger, since 5 is more than half of 8, and 7 is less than half of 15, but if you want the math... 5/8 = 75/120 7/15 = 56/120 75 is bigger than 56.
5/8 is greater.
To determine which fraction is larger, we need to find a common denominator. In this case, the common denominator is 120. Converting 5/8 to have a denominator of 120 gives us 75/120, while converting 7/15 gives us 56/120. Therefore, 5/8 is larger than 7/15.
7/8 is bigger than 13/15 7/8 = 105/120 13/15= 104/120 thus, 7/8 is bigger than 13/15
The actual answer is 7/8.

assuming you mean 5/8 and 7/15 it would be 5/8. You can do this 2 ways. Either figure out half of each 4/8 and 7.5/15 realize that 5/8 is more than half and 7/15 is less than half. The other way is to just do 5 divided by 8 and 7 divided by 15
Yes 5/8 is bigger than 7/20
