Question

Julia and Sam rode their bikes on the bike path. Julia rode her bike 3/10 of the path's distance. Sam rode his bike 4/8 of the path's distance. Compare the distances using <,>, or =.

Answer 1

< that's the answer because 4/8 is a bigger number than 3/10

Answer 2

You can turn them into decimals:

3/10 = 0.3 and 4/8 = 0.5

0.3 is less than 0.5, so you will use the symbol <
