Final answer:

To determine which fraction is greater, we convert both fractions to decimal form. Six over ten is greater than one over two.

Step-by-step explanation:

To determine which fraction is greater, six over ten or one over two, we can convert both fractions to decimal form and compare them. Six over ten can be simplified to three over five, which is equal to 0.6. One over two is equal to 0.5. Since 0.6 is greater than 0.5, we can conclude that six over ten is greater than one over two.

Please, could you use symbols instead of describing the problem in words? And could you separate the possible answers from the question and from the other answers by typing them each on its own line?

A one over two
B one over four
C two over three
D three over four



Making your posts easy to read increase the chances that you'll get the help you want.

six over ten >_______> one over two should be written as:

(6/10) > > (1/2)

Use 10 as your LCD. Then (6/10) > > 5/10

Can you now finish the solution?
