8. There are many ways to compare fractions. One way is illustrating the
fractions before comparing. Consider the problem below:
Paul has ½ pizza while Tricia has 3/5 pizza. Who has the bigger size
of pizza?
3/5 has the bigger part than ½ .
Therefore, Tricia has the bigger size of pizza. We
can simply write:
Try These: Compare the given fractions with
illustrations. Use , or to compare.

Therefore, 1/2 is less than

or
Mang Mael then has a bigger
size of rice field than Mang
Ben.
2/3 = 4/6
We can also compare fractions by changing the Dissimilar Fractions
to Similar Fractions . Answer this problem:
Mang Ben has 1/2 hectare of rice field while Mang Mael
has 2/3 hectare of it. Who has the biggest size of rice field? 1/2 and 2/3 are
Dissimilar fractions. We can change them to Similar Fractions by getting the
Least Common Denominator (LCD). LCD is 6
