Answer:

Hi!

a)

  • 1/6 is smaller than 1/2.
  • 4/7 is greater than 1/2.
  • 1/6 is smaller than 4/7.

b)

  • 5/9 is greater than 3/8.

Step-by-step explanation:

If you are having problems doing the comparision, the best form to check if a number is greater or smaller than another, you can divide the fraction and obtain the decimal form.

Example:

1/6 ≅ 0.16.

4/7 ≅ 0.57.

1/2 = 0.50.

3/8 ≅ 0.37.

5/9 ≅ 0.55.

Now, you can replace the numbers and check again:

  • 0.16 is smaller than 0.5.
  • 4/7 is greater than 0.5.
  • 0.16 is smaller than 0.57.

b)

  • 0.55 is greater than 0.375.
