What is larger one quarter or one eighth?
one quarter is the largest, one eighth is more(8)of smaller and 1/4 is less(4)of Bigger pieces
What is more one seventh or one eighth?
one seventh cause there is less to split the circle with ---- One-seventh is greater. If you divide something into seven pieces, each piece is bigger than if you divide it into eight pieces. The more pieces, the smaller each piece has to be. Half an hour (1/2) is bigger than a quarter of an hour (1/4).
When two fractions refer to the same whole explain why the fraction with a lesser denominator has larger pieces than the fraction with a greater denominator?
The fraction with the smaller denominator has fewer pieces in the whole. So each piece must be bigger.
Why are fourths bigger than tenths?
Fourths are much bigger than tenths. They are so much bigger that it only takes FOUR of them to make one whole something. Tenths are smaller; it takes TEN of them to make the same whole something. Make 2 identical strawberry rhubarb pies. Cut one into FOUR equal pieces. Cut the other into TEN equal pieces. If you give out a piece from the one cut into 4 pieces, and a piece from the one cut into 10 pieces, which piece will be larger? The first pie is cut into fourths, and the second is cut into tenths.
As the denominator increases the fractional pieces become?
smaller
What fraction is bigger 7 Th's or 4 Th's?
4th's are bigger as something divided into only 4 pieces means the pieces are bigger, compared to something divided into 7 smaller pieces.
How do rocks break into smaller pieces?
You smash a rock with a bigger rock
Explain why smaller pieces of marshmallow will dissolve faster than awhole marshmallow?
The smaller pieces have more total surface area with which to interact with the liquid, thus the liquid can disolve them faster than the whole marshmallow.
Do smaller pieces of a solute will not dissolve as quickly as larger pieces?
Smaller pieces of a solute will dissolve more quickly than larger pieces. This is because the surface area of the smaller pieces is greater, allowing for more contact with the solvent and therefore faster dissolution.
Is one fifth less than one eighth?
No. A fifth is bigger because the pieces are bigger, rather than an eighth would have to be cut into smaller pieces.
Do big pieces react faster than small pieces?
In general, smaller pieces react faster than larger pieces because they have a larger surface area for reactions to occur. This increased surface area allows for more interactions between the reactants, leading to a faster rate of reaction.
Do we cut vegetables into smaller or bigger pieces when boiling?
while it depends on the cook, it helps to experiment.
Does the size of sugar affect the speed at which it dissolves in water?
greater surface area to volume ratio greater the rate of dissolution it will dissolve faster if broken into smaller pieces hence smaller = faster
Are there different amounts of juice in pieces of fruit?
yes the bigger it is, the juicer. thae smaller it is, less juice
Why is it important to cut vegetable into a uniform size before cooking?
so that they cook uniformly. smaller pieces will cook faster than big pieces
Why did the antacid disslove faster when broken up into smaller pieces?
Breaking the antacid into smaller pieces increases the surface area exposed to the solvent, allowing for more efficient dissolution. This results in faster dissolution because the solvent can more easily reach and react with the molecules of the antacid.
Why do slightly ripe bananas coo faster when cut diagonally into smaller size?
They cool faster when cut into pieces because the surface area has been increased.
