Answer 1

Yes because 237 and a half is way bigger than 2 and 8/24

Answer 2

Yes, 237.5 is greater than 2 8/24.

Explanation:

We are asked to compare two numbers i.e. we have to find the greater number out of the two numbers.

The numbers are:

237.5 and 2 8/24

Now, we change the mixed fraction number into decimal number so that it would be easy to compare the two numbers.

`2(8)/(24)=(2* 24+8)/(24)\\\\2(8)/(24)=2.333`

since 237> 2

This means that 237.5>2.333

Hence, we have:

237.5 is greater than 2.3333
