Math questions:Use equivalent fractions to help you compare the fractions below: Show all the steps!!
Example:2/3 or 8/9I would like to create an equivalent fraction for 2/3. I would like to get an equivalent fraction with 9 on the bottom of the fraction. This will make it easy to compare. If I multiply 2/3 by 3, I get the equivalent fraction 6/9. Now, I can easily see that 6/9 (or 2/3) is a smaller fraction than 8/9. It is easier to compare because both fractions have 9 on the bottom.
a) 3/4 or 13/16 b) 8/14 or 1/2
c) 22/25 or 4/5 d) 2/6 or 3/12
