Which are greater:

1/4 or 9/16 or 3/8 or 7/8 or 4/8 or 3/16?

Answer 1

These should be put over a common denominator to determine which are less or greater. Once they have a common denominator, you only need to look at the numerators

The common denominator for all of these is 16

7/8 (2/2) = 14/16

3/8 (2/2) = 6/16

3/16 = 3/16 (Don't need to do anything)

1/2(8/8) = 8/16

3/8 and 3/16 are less than 1/2

7/8 is greater than 1/2
