Question

is 5/12 greater than 0.44

Answer 1

The LCM of 25 and 24 is 600. So I am going to convert them both into fractions to see which one is bigger.

0.44 = 44/100 = 12/25 = (12*24)/(25*24) = 264/600

5/12 = (5*50)/(12*50) = 250/600

264/600 is greater than 250/600, therfore 0.44 is greater than 5/12

Answer 2

Well, first of all, you have to turn 5/12 into a decimal. As a decimal, it will be 0.416. And approximately, that is 0.42. So as you can see, 44 is greater than 42. So 0.44 is GREATER than 0.42. Hope i helped. HAVE A NICE DAY.
