Well you ask the right person!

first ask yourself this, What is Cross mulply?

cross mulpy is an easy way to find which fractions are bigger.

I'll show you the 5 easy steps of cross mulply.

1. write your fractions ON a piece of papper.

__3__ __5__

4 7 <--- example

2. put an X in the middle.

__3__ __5__

4 X 7

3. mulply the numbers diangle.

_3___ X _5___

4 7

7x3= 21

4x5= 20

4. write the anwser you mulpy on the top.

21 20

_3___ X _5___

4 7

7x3= 21

4x5= 20

5. Then look at the anwser you mulpy and see which one is bigger.

21 20

_3___ X _5___

4 7

7x3= 21

4x5= 20

6. the bigger number that is on top of the fraction is the anwser!

21 > 20

__3__ __5__

4 7

__3___

4 is bigger.

REMEMBER 1 :

you can use cross mulpy to see which fraction is bigger.

you can also use cross mulply to order fractions from least to greatests.

P.S.
