Question

-3/5 greater than -6/10

Answer 1

To compare \(-\frac{3}{5}\) and \(-\frac{6}{10}\), it helps to convert them to have a common denominator or to simplify the fractions.

First, note that \(-\frac{6}{10}\) can be simplified:

\[
-\frac{6}{10} = -\frac{3}{5}
\]

Now we have:

\[
-\frac{3}{5} \quad \text{and} \quad -\frac{3}{5}
\]

Since both fractions are equal:

\[
-\frac{3}{5} = -\frac{6}{10}
\]

Therefore, it is not correct to say that \(-\frac{3}{5}\) is greater than \(-\frac{6}{10}\); they are equal.
