Your approach to this sort of problem is first to convert the data into it lowest fractional form. (Which it is already in this case.)
Next, find the lowest common multiple of the denominators.
6/10 and 3/8 have the lowest multiple of their denominators = 1/40.
Remember the denominator is the bit on the bottom.
So multiplying the fractions so they both have their denominator as 40.
This gives us 6/10 = 24/40 and 3/8 = 15/40.
You should find it easy to decide which of these new fractions is the larger.
3/6. 3/6 reduces to 1/2 while 2/8 reduces to 1/4.
Converting them both to decimal form:8/10 = 0.8; 6/8 = 0.75. From that it's obvious which is larger.
To find out how many eighths make 3 quarters, first convert quarters to eighths. Since 1 quarter is equal to 2 eighths, 3 quarters equals 6 eighths. Therefore, 3 quarters make 6 eighths.
3/8+3/8= 6/8= 3/4
Three quarters (3/4) is bigger than three eighths (3/8). When comparing the two fractions, 3/4 is equivalent to 6/8, which is greater than 3/8. Therefore, 3/4 is the larger fraction.
To convert tenths to eighths, we need to find a common denominator. To do this, we can multiply 6 tenths by 8 to get 48 eighths. Therefore, there are 48 eighths in 6 tenths.
3/6. 3/6 reduces to 1/2 while 2/8 reduces to 1/4.
no 6/10= 3/5. 5/8= 5/8 Find common denominator 24/40 25/40 5/8 is larger.
Converting them both to decimal form:8/10 = 0.8; 6/8 = 0.75. From that it's obvious which is larger.
To find out how many eighths are in 3 fourths, you need to convert 3 fourths to eighths. Since 1 fourth is equivalent to 2 eighths, you can multiply 3 fourths by 2 to get the answer. Therefore, there are 6 eighths in 3 fourths.
3/8+3/8= 6/8= 3/4
6 tenths is larger than 45 hundredths. (0.6 to 0.45, respectively.)
6/16
The answer is... 6
6/8 = 3/4
To determine which fraction is larger, you can convert them to have a common denominator. In this case, the common denominator would be 8. Three fourths is equivalent to six eighths, while five eighths remains the same. Therefore, three fourths (or six eighths) is larger than five eighths.
3/8 = 0.3751/6 = 0.167 ...Three eights is over twice that sizeof one sixth!
