No.
First you find 1/2 as a decimal: divide 1 by 2 and you get 0.50
Find 4/7 as a decimal: divide 4 by 7 and you get 0.57rounded
now you can find which one is greater. 0.57 is greater than 0.50 so 4/7 is greater than one half.
Alternately, you can convert both fractions so that they have the same denominator (the number at the bottom) and then you will see which is larger.
1/2 is equal to 7/14 (all we did here was multiply both the top and bottom by 7 - this keeps the fraction as representing the same amount because the relationship between the two numbers remains unchanged).
4/7 is equal to 8/14 (again here we have multiplied top and bottom by the same amount - in this case by 2). Now that we have both fractions written as fourteenths we can easily compare to see which is larger. 8/14 is larger than 7/14 and therefore 4/7 is larger than 1/2.
2/7 is 3/14 less than 1/2.
your question answers itself "Is seven and a half greater than a half" One is fifteen times greater than the other.
To divide four sevenths by one half, you can multiply four sevenths by the reciprocal of one half. The reciprocal of one half is two, so the calculation becomes ( \frac{4}{7} \times 2 = \frac{8}{7} ). Therefore, four sevenths divided by one half equals eight sevenths, which can also be expressed as 1 and 1/7.
one half
No, 1/2 is larger than 3/7. One half is equivalent to .50 and 3/7 is .43 rounded.
2/7 is 3/14 less than 1/2.
no
5/7 is 42.86% more than 1/2 .
2/7 is greater than 1/4
1 half
5/7 is closer to 1/2 than to 1.
your question answers itself "Is seven and a half greater than a half" One is fifteen times greater than the other.
3/7 = 6/14, which is 1/14 less than 1/2
no its .46 less than half
No : 4 over 8 equals one half and so is not greater. It is less than 1 .
