Using the benchmark 1/2 and the fractions 1/8 amd 5/8 to write three comparison statements
4 months ago
Q:
Using the benchmark 1/2 and the fractions 1/8 amd 5/8 to write three comparison statements
Accepted Solution
A:
To compare 1/8 and 5/8, you will compare each separately to 1/2 (4/8).
1/8 < 1/2(4/8)
5/8 > 1/2 (4/8)
1/8 < 5/8
By comparing each fraction to 1/2, you will then be able to compare the two fractions.
