Answer:
3/9 is less that 5/8
Explanation:
To answer this question we can simply infer which is greater by using simple knowledge.
We know that 1/9 and 1/8 are both relatively small parts of a whole.
Now we know that 1/8 is greater than 1/9
If we think about it 5/8 is bound to be greater than 3/9 because the parts of a whole when you are dealing with 8ths are greater than when you are dealing with 9ths and since there are more 8ths than 9ths in the comparison as in (3 < 9) then we should already know that:
5/8 is greater than 3/9
