To know which girl ate the most, we have to compare the two fractions.

To be able to compare the fractions, we can:

1.- We convert to decimal numbers.

2.- We modify the fractions such that both fractions have the same denominator.

To compare the fraction we will change them in a way that both have the same denominator.

Recall that a fraction represents the same number if we multiply it and divide it by the same number.

Notice that:


(3)/(6)=(3)/(6)*(8)/(8)=(24)/(48),
(4)/(8)=(4)/(8)*(6)/(6)=(24)/(48)\text{.}

Since both fractions are the same, we can conclude that both girls ate the same amount.

Answer: 3/6 is equal to 4/8.

Both girls ate the same amount
