0.7 = 7/10 (decimal to fraction)

3/5 = 6/10 (multiplied by 2 to create a common denominator)

So 0.7 is larger

you can figure this out by turning
(3)/(5) into a decimal you do that by dividing the numerator by the denominator so 3 divided by 5 equals 0.6 so now which is grater 0.7 or 0.6
0.7 is greater than
(3)/(5)
