N algebra 3/8 ____ 3/4 Fill in the blank with the appropriate?

Question

inequality symbol (either < or >). Show work that supports your conclusion. Thanks

Answer 1

3/8 is less than 3/4, since an eighth of something is much smaller than a fourth, no work necessary just common sense.

Answer 2

3/8&lt;3/4

*find the least common denominator between the 2 fractions, which here is 8.  

*3/8 doesnt need to be changed.  

*in 3/4, figure out how many 8ths that is. well to get to 8 from 4, you multiply by 2. so you multiply both the numerator and denominator of 3/4 by 2.  

3(numerator in 3/4)x2 is 6, and 4(denominator in 3/4) x2 is 8. therefore 3/4 becomes 6/8, which is greater than 3/8
