Mr. Ryan's yard is slightly smaller than Mrs. Bentson's yard. Mr. Ryan has mowed 6/8 of his lawn. Mrs. Bentson has mowed 2/3 of her lawn. Which comparison is true?
Mrs. Bentson has mowed a greater area because 2/3 > 6/8.
Mr. Ryan has mowed a greater area because 6/8 > 2/3.
You cannot compare the fraction; not the smae wholes.
