Write these fractions in words. a) 5/8 = b) 7/10 = c) 9/12 = 2. Complete the equivalent fractions. a) 2/3 = /6 b) 3/5 = /10 c) 4/7 = /14 3. Compare the fractions using <, > or =. a) 5/8 7/8 b) 3/4 6/8 c) 2/6 2/3

The numerator is 5, and the denominator is 8 (eighths).

b) $\frac{7}{10}$

The numerator is 7, and the denominator is 10 (tenths).

c) $\frac{9}{12}$

The numerator is 9, and the denominator is 12 (twelfths).

2. Complete the equivalent fractions.

a) \frac{2}{3} = \frac{\text{_}}{6}

So, $\frac{2}{3} = \frac{4}{6}$.

b) \frac{3}{5} = \frac{\text{_}}{10}

So, $\frac{3}{5} = \frac{6}{10}$.

c) \frac{4}{7} = \frac{\text{_}}{14}

So, $\frac{4}{7} = \frac{8}{14}$.

3. Compare the fractions using $<, >,$ or $=$.

a) $\frac{5}{8} \text{ \_\_\_ } \frac{7}{8}$

Therefore, $\frac{5}{8} < \frac{7}{8}$.

b) $\frac{3}{4} \text{ \_\_\_ } \frac{6}{8}$

The least common denominator for 4 and 8 is 8.

Therefore, $\frac{3}{4} = \frac{6}{8}$.

c) $\frac{2}{6} \text{ \_\_\_ } \frac{2}{3}$

The least common denominator for 6 and 3 is 6.

Therefore, $\frac{2}{6} < \frac{2}{3}$.
