The 5th graders were given sandwiches for lunch during their field trip. Nathan at 5/6 of his sandwich, Leroy ate 7/8 of his sandwich, and Sofia ate 5/8. Who ate the greatest amount of their sandwich?

You could basicly cross multiply. 5/6 is less than 7/8. 7/8 is bigger than 5/8. So the anser is 7/8
