By using the fraction strips , compare the fractions [tex]\frac{1}{4} and \frac{1}{5}[/tex].
we can say that [tex]\frac{1}{4}[/tex] is the biggest
Given :
Two fractions [tex]\frac{1}{4} and \frac{1}{5}[/tex]
Lets compare two fractions using fraction strips
Lets make fraction strips that starts at 1
then divide 1 strips into two strips having 1/2 and 1/2
Then we divide it into three strips [tex]\frac{1}{3} , \frac{1}{3} ,\frac{1}{3}[/tex]
Then divide the same into four strips having fractions [tex]\frac{1}{4} ,\frac{1}{4} ,\frac{1}{4} ,\frac{1}{4}[/tex]
Again divide the same strip into 5 strips having fractions [tex]\frac{1}{5} ,\frac{1}{5} ,\frac{1}{5} ,\frac{1}{5} ,\frac{1}{5}[/tex]
The diagram is attached below
From this diagram , we can say that the fraction [tex]\frac{1}{4}[/tex] is the biggest .
