5 x -2 = -10
-2 times 5 = -10 1 x -10 2 x -5 5 x -2 10 x -1
2 x 10^1 x 1 x 10^5 = 2 x 10^6
5/10, or 1/2.
3/5 and 1/2 Bring to a common denomintor of '10' (2 X 5) Then bring the numerstors to equaivalent values. Hence 3/5 = 6/10 & 1/2 = 5/10 Compare the numerators 6 > 5 Hence it follows that 3/5 > 1/2

5 x -2 = -10
-2 times 5 = -10 1 x -10 2 x -5 5 x -2 10 x -1
1 x 10, 2 x 5, 5 x 2, 10 x 1.
1 x 10, 2 x 5, 5 x 2, 10 x 1
2 x 10^1 x 1 x 10^5 = 2 x 10^6
10 = 1 x 10, 2 x 5, 5 x 2, 10 x 1
5/10, or 1/2.
1 x 10, 2 x 5, 5 x 2, 10 x 1
1 x 10, 2 x 5, 5 x 2, 10 x 1
3/5 and 1/2 Bring to a common denomintor of '10' (2 X 5) Then bring the numerstors to equaivalent values. Hence 3/5 = 6/10 & 1/2 = 5/10 Compare the numerators 6 > 5 Hence it follows that 3/5 > 1/2
It is already a fraction: 1/5 (= 2/10)The decimal equivalent is 0.2To create an equivalent fraction to 1/5 multiply the numerator (top number) and denominator (bottom number) by the same number, examples:By 2:1/5 = (1 x 2)/(5 x 2) = 2/10 By 3:1/5 = (1 x 3)/(5 x 3) = 3/15 By 5:1/5 = (1 x 5)/(5 x 5) = 5/25 By 10:1/5 = (1 x 10)/(5 x 10) = 10/50 So 2/10, 3/15, 5/25 & 10/50 are all equivalent to 1/5
