lara has a 4/8 glass full of orange juice. her brother glass is 2/3 full. who has more orange juice?

Question

whats the answer?

Answer 1

Her brother. 4/8 is 1/2 and that is less than 2/3. And easier way to see it is to turn 4/8 into 12/24 and 2/3 into 16/24. See who has more now?

Answer 2

Depends on the size of the glasses but from the information given, 2/3 is larger than 1/2 (4/8).

Answer 3

If her brother's glass is full of orange juice, then her brother because 4/8=1/2. You didn't say if his glass is full of orange juice, so it might be filled with something else, in which cases Lara would have more OJ.

Answer 4

In order to solve this problem, you have to get the two fractions comparable by finding a common denomiantor. Since 8*3=24, 24 is the common denominator. To keep the fractions the same, multiply the numerators by what you multiplied the denominators by to get 24. Using this you get: 4/8=12/24 and 2/3=16/24. Therefore, her brother has more juice.

Answer 5

The brother has more, since 2/3 is more than half. You could also use a common denomenator. Multiply the sister's portion by 3/3 (to get 12/24) and multiply the brother's portion by 8/8 (to get 16/24). Clearly, 16 is more than 12.

Answer 6

2/3

Answer 7

Her brother...4/8 is 1/2...and 2/3 is fuller than a half by about 16%

Answer 8

Lara has more orange juice. her brother's glass is 2/3 full... but u didnt mention what it contains.

Answer 9

4/8? Just say "half" like a normal person :)

First, it depends on how big the glasses are. We are missing crucial information here!

If both of the glasses are the same size then obviously 2/3 is more than a half.

Answer 10

Her brother, 2/3 is greater than 1/2.
