Lesson Sixty-three: Comparing Fractions

Here's this table comparing fractions again.
ONE WHOLE
1/2 1/2
1/3 1/3 1/3
1/4 1/4 1/4 1/4
1/5 1/5 1/5 1/5 1/5
1/6 1/6 1/6 1/6 1/6 1/6
1/10 1/10 1/10 1/10 1/10 1/10 1/10 1/10 1/10 1/10

We often use the < (less than) and the > (greater than) symbols to compare the size of two values. Here are some examples using fractions:
1/3 > 1/5 1/10 < 1/4 1/8 > 1/9 1/2 > 1/9 1/5 > 1/6 1/3 < 1/2
In the next exercise you will use the right and left arrow keys to point to the greater value.
