Question

What fraction is greater than C on the given number line above?

1 1/3
2 2/5
3 1/4
4 1/5

Answer 1

2 is greater than C on the number line

Explanation:

Answer 2

2/5

Explanation:

C is at the second tick of 6 segements, so C = 2/6 = 1/3.

If we convert all fractions to /60, you can easily see the answer:

1/3 = 20/60

2/5 = 24/60

1/4 = 15/60

1/5 = 12/60

So we're looking for an answer larger than 20/60, which is only 24/60, a.k.a. 2/5.
