2divde 8 and 2 divide 6, which is greater?

Answer 1

I assume that "2 divide 8" means 2/8 and "2 divide 6" means 2/6. When comparing two fractions, the most efficient method is to give them a common denominator. And you can do that by multiplying the numerator and denominator of a fraction by the same number. In this case, the lowest common denominator would be 24.

(2/8)*(3/3) = 6/24
(2/6)*(4/4) = 8/24

We can do this because 3/3 and 4/4 are each equal to 1, so multiplying by them does not change the value. Now, 8/24 is clearly larger than 6/24, so 2/6 > 2/8.

Answer 2

As written 2 divide 8 is greater since 8/2 = 4 and 6/2 = 3

But I think you meant 2 divided by 8 and 2 divided by 6, and in that case, 2/6 = 1/3 and is greater than 2/8 = 1/4

The rule to remember is that the numerator being same, the smaller the denominator, the bigger the number. But remember, the denominator should be non-zero, since any division with zero gives infinity.

Answer 3

for same numerator , more the number u divide by, smaller is ur answer

Divide 2 by 6 u get 1/3
Divide 2/8 u get 1/4

1/3rd of a cake is greater than 1/4th of a cake!!!

so, 2/6 is greater 2/8

Answer 4

so 2/6 is greater

Answer 6

2/8=1/4
2/6=1/3
1/3 is greater

Answer 7

2 divide 6 is greater than 2 divide 8.y?

Answer 8

7

Answer 9

2 / 8 = 1/4

2 / 6 = 1/3 (Obviously this is the larger number)

Answer 10

2/8=1/4(equivalent fraction)
2/6=1/3(equivalent fraction)
1/3 is greater than 1/4
because smaller the denominator greater will be its value.
