Given Fractions:
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 3 and 8:
LCD = LCM(3, 8) = 24
Express the given fractions as equivalent fractions with respect to the LCD (24):
9 is greater than 8 (9 > 8)
As a result,
3/8
and 1/3
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 3 and 8:
LCD = LCM(3, 8) = 24
Express the given fractions as equivalent fractions with respect to the LCD (24):
3/8
= 9/24
and 1/3
= 8/24
Since the equivalent fractions have common denominators, we can compare the numerators:9 is greater than 8 (9 > 8)
As a result,
9/24
is greater than 8/24
Therefore, 3/8
is greater than 1/3
, 3/8
> 1/3
