1/4 is greater than or less than 2/3

1/4 is less than 2/3

Step-by-step explanation:

1/4 = 3/12

2/3 = 8/12

Which one is bigger? 3/12 or 8/12? It's 8/12, therefore 1/4 is less than 2/3

1/4 < 2/3  (one-fourth is less than two-thirds)

How do I know?

Well, because 1/4 = 3/12 (because you need to multiply the numerator and the denominator by 3 to get 3/12), and 2/3 = 8/12 (because you need to multiply both the denominator and numerator by 4 to get 8/12). Now it is easy to compare because both fractions have the same denominators. Since 3/12 < 8/12,  1/4 < 2/3, because they are essentially the same thing.

Hope that helped, fam!

Good luck!
