Answer:

  • 0.85 is bigger

Step-by-step explanation:

To compare fractions you need to bring them to the same format.

1) Convert 3/5 to decimal:

  • 3/5 = 30/50 = 60/100 = 0.60

Compare:

  • 0.60 < 0.85 as 60 < 85

2) Convert 0.85 to fraction:

  • 0.85 = 85/100 = 17/20

Bring 3/5 to the same denominator:

  • 3/5 = (3*4)/(5*4) = 12/20

Compare:

  • 12/20 < 17/20 as 12 < 17 (comparing the numerators)
