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 4 and 8:
LCD = LCM(4, 8) = 8
Express the given fractions as equivalent fractions with respect to the LCD (8):
5 is less than 6 (5 < 6)
As a result,
5/8
and 3/4
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 4 and 8:
LCD = LCM(4, 8) = 8
Express the given fractions as equivalent fractions with respect to the LCD (8):
5/8
= 5/8
and 3/4
= 6/8
Since the equivalent fractions have common denominators, we can compare the numerators:5 is less than 6 (5 < 6)
As a result,
5/8
is less than 6/8
Therefore, 5/8
is less than 3/4
, 5/8
< 3/4
