okay so lets give all of them the same denominator

31/40=31/40
3/4=30/40
4/5=32/40

i know 31/40 is greater than 3/4 because 3/4 equals 30/40 and i know 31/40 is less than 4/5 because it equals 32/40

i hope that made sense and helped

3/4 can be simplified to 30/40
4/5 can be simplified to 32/40

31/50 is greater than 3/4 (30/40), but is less than 4/5 (32/40)
