What is less than 5/6 with a denominator of 8

Chose a fraction with a denometer of 8.
Ex: 3/8

To compare 5/6 and 3/8 we need to find the LCM (the lowest common denominator.)

This can easily be done by listing the multiples of each number.
6: 6, 12, 18, 24, 30, 36
8: 8, 16, 24, 32, 40, 48

The Lowest common denominator would be 24.

6*4=40
8*3=40

Since we altered the denometer, either by multyplying by 6 or 8 (to get 24), we must do the same for the numerator.

3/8*3
9/24

5/6*4
20/24

Now we compare the fraction properly.
20 is larger than 9 so we know that 3/8 is less than 5/6.
