Simplify the denominators and divide the numerators.
Example:
8/5 ÷ 2/5 = 8/2 = 4
Check:
8/5 ÷ 2/5 = 8/5 x 5/2 = 8/2 = 4

Like fractions are fractions with the same denominators.
When you have fractions with like denominators, the larger is the one with the larger numerator.
You can convert them to equivalent fractions with like denominators, then simply compare the numerators.You might also convert each fraction to a decimal (divide the numerator by the denominator); then you can also compare them.
If the denominators are not the same, then you have to use equivalent fractions which do have a common denominator . To do this, you need to find the least common multiple (LCM) of the two denominators.
A fraction where the denominators are different EG: 1/6 and 1/4. Like fractions are when the denominators are the same EG: 1/6 and 2/6 Hope this helped :))))
