[tex]\mathsf{Is\ \dfrac{1}{8}\ greater\ than\ or\ less\ than\ \dfrac{2}{5}\ ?}[/tex]
[tex]\large\text{Personally, if you convert your fractions into decimals it can be easier to}\\\large\text{to answer your question. Or you could even match it with the LCD}\\\large\text{if it is easier for you!}[/tex]
[tex]\mathsf{\dfrac{1}{8}=0.125} \\\\\mathsf{\dfrac{2}{5}=0.40}[/tex]
[tex]\large\text{The\ LCD (Lowest Common Denominator) is 40}[/tex]
[tex]\mathsf{Match\ your\ fractions\ with\ your\ LCD}\\\\\boxed{\mathsf{\dfrac{1}{8}}}\boxed{\mathsf{\dfrac{2}{5}}}\\\boxed{\mathsf{\dfrac{5}{40}}}\boxed{\mathsf{\dfrac{16}{40}}}[/tex]
[tex]\large\text{We compared }\mathsf{\dfrac{1}{8}\ \&\ \dfrac{5}{40}.}\large\text{ We also compared }\mathsf{\dfrac{2}{5} \ \& \ \dfrac{16}{40}}[/tex]
[tex]\mathsf{Both\ \dfrac{2}{5} \& \ \dfrac{16}{40}\ are\ LESS/ SMALLER\ than\ \dfrac{1}{8} \ & \ \dfrac{5}{40}}[/tex]
[tex]\boxed{\boxed{\large\text{Thus your answer is: \boxed{\mathsf{\dfrac{1}{8} \ is\ GREATER\ than\ \dfrac{2}{5}}}}}}}\huge\checkmark[/tex]
[tex]\large\text{Good luck on your assignment and enjoy your day!}[/tex]
