Question

In a fruit basket 1/4 of the fruits are bananas and 3/8 are mangoes.Which are more the bananas or the mangoes? Solution

Answer 1

well, 1/4 = 2/8, so what do you think?

Answer 2

I want the answer and the formula

Answer 3

To compare the quantity of bananas and mangoes in the fruit basket, we can determine which fraction is greater: 1/4 or 3/8.

To do this, we can find a common denominator for both fractions. In this case, the least common denominator (LCD) for 4 and 8 is 8.

Let's convert 1/4 to an equivalent fraction with a denominator of 8:

1/4 * 2/2 = 2/8

Now, let's compare 2/8 and 3/8:

2/8 < 3/8

Since 3/8 is greater than 2/8, we can conclude that there are more mangoes in the fruit basket than bananas.
