4 thirds, is one and a third, while 3 fourths, is not even one. Short answer: 4 3rds Think it out,
4 thirds: 4 times 1/3 = 4 X 0.333 = 1.332
3 fourths: 3 times 1/4 = 3 x 0.25 = 0.75
Which is larger?
Typically a fraction is an easy way of writing a decimal. Divide the numerator by the denominator and you get your answer. Three Fourths 3/4 = 3 divided by 4 = .75 Four Thirds 4/3 = 4 divided by 3= 1.33333[cont.] 4/3 is bigger because 4 is a bigger number and it can go into 3 more than once. Hence 1.3333[cont.]
3 fourths times 2 thirds equals 11 twelves
no, 3/4ths is bigger than 2/3. 2/3=8/12 3/4=9/12
2/4 = 1/2 1/2 = 0.5 2/3 = 0.6666... Therefore 2/3 is bigger than 2/4
Three fourths is 3/4 whereas one half is 1/2 or 2/4 (two fourths) So three is bigger than two.
