Question

Mr. Brady draws a fraction on the board. Ken says it's 2/3, and Dan said it's 3/2. Do both of these fractions mean the same thing? If not, which fraction is greater? ​

Answer 1

3/2 is greater than 2/3

Explanation:

2/3 means 2 divided by 3. Since 2 is smaller than 3, 2 divided by 3 is less than 1.
