Which fraction is greater than 4/8 a.1/2 b.1/4 c.7/8 d.3/5

c and d

Step-by-step explanation:

4/8 = 1/2

a.1/2 =1/2 so it is not greater

b.1/4  <  1/2 = 2/4  so 4/8 is greater

c.7/8   > 4/8  so 7/8 is greater

d.3/5     3/5 = 6/10    1/2 = 5/10

                     3/5 >     4/8

7/8 and 3/5

Step-by-step explanation:

First, let’s look at 4/8 and 1/2. They have different denominations so let’s change them. 2 and 8’s closest multiple that they share is 8. 8/8=1, so we have to multiply the numerator and denominator by 1 which doesn’t change the fraction. 8/2=4, so we have to multiply the numerator and denominator by 4 which makes it: 4/8. 4/8 and 4/8 are the same so they are equal.

Next, let’s look at 4/8 and 1/4. They have different denominations so let’s change them. 4 and 8’s closest multiple that they share is 8. 8/8=1, so we have to multiply the numerator and denominator by 1 which doesn’t change the fraction. 8/4=2, so we have to multiply the numerator and denominator by 2 which makes it: 2/8. 4/8 is greater than 2/8 so this would be a wrong answer.

Then, let’s look at 4/8 and 7/8. They have the same denominations so we don’t have to change them. Let’s look at the numerators though: 4 and 7. 7 is greater than 4 so this answer would be correct.

Finally, let’s look at 4/8 and 3/5. They have different denominations so let’s change them. 5 and 8’s closest multiple that they share is 40. 40/8=5, so we have to multiply the numerator and denominator by 5 which makes it 20/40. 40/5=8, so we have to multiply the numerator and denominator by 8 which makes it: 24/40. 24/40 is greater than 20/40, so this answer is correct.

Hope this helps!
