Answer:

Yes

Explanation:

To get the answer, we first convert each fraction into decimal numbers. We do this by dividing the numerator by the denominator for each fraction as illustrated below:

8/9 = 0.889

2/3 = 0.667

Then, we compare the two decimal numbers to get the answer.

0.889 is greater than 0.667
