2/5 or 0.3 "Which number is greater?"

Well, first we must turn everything into a fraction.

0.3 as a fraction is 3.10

So, now we have : 2/5 or 3/10

Multiply 2/2 with 2/5 so that both fractions have a denominator of 10.

2/2 × 2/5 = 4/10

So, now we have : 4/10 or 3/10

Well, 4 is greater than 3, so 4/10 is greater!

Remember, 4/10 is equal to 2/5

So, 2/5 is the greater number.
