Is [tex]\frac{1}{8}[/tex] greater or less than [tex]\frac{1}{4}[/tex]?

Asked by 843angelica

Answer (3)

1/8 is less because would you rather have 1/8 or 1/4 of a pie? 1/4! So that's the bigger!

1/8 is less than 1/4. 1/8 is half of 1/4.

The fraction 8 1 ​ is less than 4 1 ​ . This is because when comparing them with a common denominator, 4 1 ​ equals 8 2 ​ , and 1 is less than 2. Therefore, 8 1 ​ < 4 1 ​ .
