Question

8/11 is it greater than or less than -1/3

Answer 1

Greater. One of the easiest ways to see this is to divide the numbers, since fractions are technically dividing. So 8 divided by 11 is about 0.73. -1 divided by 3 is about -0.33. So since 0.73 is greater than -0.33, 8/11 is bigger. :D

Answer 2

Greater than

Explanation:

A positive number, fraction, etc. is always bigger than a number or a fraction with a negative sign, so therefore 8/11 is greater than -1/3.
