2/3 * 4/4 = 8/12
1/4 * 3/3 = 3/12
1/4 * 3/3 = 3/12
To compare 2/3 and 1/4, first, we need to find a common denominator. The smallest number that both 3 and 4 can divide evenly into is 12.
Next, convert the fractions to have a denominator of 12:
2/3 can be multiplied by 4/4 to get 8/12
1/4 can be multiplied by 3/3 to get 3/12
Now that both fractions have the same denominator, we can compare their numerators. Here, 8/12 is greater than 3/12.
Therefore, the comparison is:
2/3 is greater than 1/4.
