To compare this fraactions we can see the components of each one, so for example in the first fraction the numarator is equal to 5 and the denominator is equal to 8, and in the secon fraction the numerator is equal to 3 and the denominator is 8, this means that the denominatos is the same and the first fraction will be bigger than the second one. othe way to see is is if you have a pizza and you have 8 slice, now the fisrt fraction means that you ate 5 slices of pizza and the secon fraction means that you ate 3 slices of pizza
