Question

4/12>5/8 because 4\12 is less than 1\2 and 5\8 is greater than 1\2

Answer 1

5/8 > 4/12

Explanation:

We can check this by making their denominators the same.

First find the lowest common multiple of 8 and 12 which is 24.

5x3=15 and 4x2=12

8x3=24 and 12x2=24

--

5/8 = 15/24 meanwhile 4/12 = 12/24

15/24 > 12/24
