Compare the fractions given below by writing > or ˂ on the lines. Give a brief explanation for each answer referring to benchmarks. 6/10 _________ 5/6 | 6/10 < 5/6 6/10 is larger than one half, and so is 5/6. However, 5/6 is closer to one whole because it is only missing one sixth piece, instead of three tenth pieces. |
Compare the fractions given below by writing > or ˂ on the lines. Give a brief explanation for each answer referring to benchmarks. 9/8 _________ 3/2 | 9/8 < 3/2 Halves are much larger than eighths. So if I have three half pieces, that equals, one and a half. Where 9/8 is equal to 1 and 1/8. 3/2 is greater than 9/8. |
Compare the fractions given below by writing > or ˂ on the lines. Give a brief explanation for each answer referring to benchmarks. 3/4 _________ 4/3 | 3/4 < 4/3 3/4 is less than one whole. 4/3 is greater than one whole. Therefore, 4/3 is greater than 3/4. |
