HAPPY LEARNING

There are many ways to compare fractions. One way is illustrating the fractions before comparing. Consider the problem below:

Andy has ½ pizza while Rene has 3/5 pizza. Who has the bigger size of pizza? Seemingly 3/5 is bigger than ½. Therefore, Rene has the bigger size of pizza. We can simply write: 1 2

3 5

We use the following symbols to compare: Greater than (>) Lesser than (<) Equal (=)

Try These: Illustrate the fractions then compare. compare. 3 7 3 4

We can also compare fractions by changing the dissimilar fractions to similar before comparing the fractions.

Answer this problem: Mang Canor has ½ hectare of rice filed while Mang Isko has 2/3 hectare. Who has the biggest size of rice field?

½ and 2/3 are dissimilar fractions. We can change them to similar using 6 as their

LCD.

Mang Isko then has bigger size of rice field than Mang Canor. Try These: Compare the fractions in the window pane. Write the dissimilar fractions to similar fractions before comparing. Use the LCD on the wheel.

is equal to 0.75 therefore ¾ is greater
