Compare the fractions
3/6
and
4/8

Given Fractions:  
3/6
and
4/8

Since the denominators are not common (not the same), we need to find the Least Common Denominator (LCD), which is equivalent to the Least Common Multiple of 6 and 8:
LCD = LCM(6, 8) = 24
Express the given fractions as equivalent fractions with respect to the LCD (24):
3/6
=
12/24
  and  
4/8
=
12/24
Since the equivalent fractions have common denominators, we can compare the numerators:
12 is equal to 12  (12 = 12)
As a result,  
12/24
  is equal to
12/24
Therefore,  
3/6
  is equal to
4/8
,  
3/6
=
4/8
