Which fraction is greater 7/8 or 2/3 ?

To determine which is bigger, 7/8 or 2/3, there are two different techniques (both provide the same answer).

First, we could find a common denominator for both fractions. Once we have a common denominator, we can compare the numerator for 7/8 and 2/3. If the denominator is the same for both fractions, whichever has a larger numerator is the larger fraction.

Second, we could also divide 7 by 8 and get 0.875. Then we divide 2 by 3 and we get 0.6667. This also allows us to see that 7/8 is a larger fraction than 2/3.

The benefit of using a calculator to change the fraction to a decimal (or you could do it by hand) is that it works on fractions that are similar. For example, 4/11 and 5/12.

Either way the fraction 7/8 is greater than the fraction 2/3.

Or else you could just look at it and just use common f*cken sense instead...
