4/8 is actually less than 5/6. Multiply the 4 in 4/8 by 6 and then multiply the 8 also by 6. You should get 24/48. Then you should multiply the 5 in 5/6 by 8 and the 6 by 8. You should get 40/48. 4/8 = 24/48 and 5/6 = 4048 Since 40/48 is larger than 24/48 this proves that 5/6 is greater than 4/8. Hope this helps
