During a soccer game, Erin scored 1 out of 2 goals attempted. Lauren scored 6 out of 8 goals attempted. Write the fraction that represents each and compare. Who was the most successful?

I think Lauren is the most successful with goals. But i need help solving the rest. May someone give an explanation to help?
Thank you! :)

1/2 =.5 = 4/8

6/8 = 3/4 = .75
even without decimals 6/8 is better than 4/8
