Question

Can someone plz help me with this

Answer 1

hello! :)

For the 1st fraction, since 3 × 8 = 24,

`(2)/(3) =(2 times 8)/(3 times 8) =(16)/(24)`

For the 2nd fraction, since 8 × 3 = 24,

`(5)/(8)=(5 times 3)/(8 times 3) =(15)/(24)`

Then the answer to compare the fractions,

`(16)/(24) >(15)/(24) or (2)/(3) > (5)/(8)`
