2. The answer is green peppers, because 5/8 is greater than 2/8.

3. The answer is the green paint jar, because 4/8 is less than 4/6.

4. The answer is flour, because 2/3 is greater than 1/3.

5. You need to give an explanation for how you compare the fractions. Here, you make both denominators (bottom numbers) the least common denominator by multiplying the first fraction by 4/4 and the second by 3/3, which gives you 20/24 and 15/24. Now that they are the same, you can ignore the denominators. 20 is clearly greater than 15.

The green peppers do for the first one because that fraction is larger. The second one is the green paint jar because it is only half while the other is more than half. She uses more flour because it is the larger fraction. And the last one you should explain.
