Fractions.

Learn: I have been learning how to find out which fraction is bigger.
Which fraction is larger? ⅓ or ⅖?

3/5

3 x 5 = 15
15/ ⅓ = 5
15/ 3 = 5
5 x 1 = 5
2/5

15/ ⅖ = 6
15 / 5 = 3
3 x 2 = 6
So I am going to find out which fraction is larger ⅓ of 2/5.
So I am going to times the two denominators  so 3 x 5 = 15
So I am going to divide the 15 by the ⅓
So 15 divided by 3 equals 5 and then 5 times 1 equals 5
Next, I am going to find out what is 15 / ⅖
So 15/5 which is the denominator which is 3
Then I'm gonna x the 3 by the numerator which is 2
That equals 6 and then I know that ⅖ is bigger than ⅓ because 6 is bigger than 5
