Answer:

Greater than symbol.

2/3 > 2/4

Explanation:

We have two fractions, 2/3 and 2/4

We then go back to the inequality part of mathematics where we have symbols such as greater than (>), less than (<), and equal to (=).

Of the three inequality symbols, we look and pick at the one that represents best, the fractions we were given.

2/3 and 2/4

With 2/3 being greater than 2/4.

2/3 = 0.67

2/4 = 0.50

Succinctly, 2/3 > 2/4.
