O.K., remember the number line?:
| - - - - - - - - - | - - - - - - - - - | - - - - - - - - - | - - - - - - - - - | - - - - - - - - - |
-3/8 -1/4 -1/8 0 1/8 1/4
(-2/8) (2/8)

So ----
For example, fine 1/4 and 2/8. They are the same, so 1/4 = 2/8.
Now, 1/4 is to the right of 1/8, so, 1/4 > 1/8. Right?
O.K. find -1/8 and -1/4. Is -1/8 to the right of, the same as, or to the left of -1/4 ?????
