First, we converted each fraction into decimal numbers. You do this by dividing the numerator by the denominator for each fraction as illustrated below:

2/8 = 0.25
5/8 = 0.63

Then, we compared the two decimal numbers to get the answer.

0.25 is not greater than 0.63. Therefore, 2/8 is not greater than 5/8.
