Someone runs 3/6 of a distance run and the other person runs 3/8 which one has ran the farthest

Answer 1

The person who ran 3/6 of a distance because 6<8, and in questions with the same top (I can't remember the name) the answer is the one with the lowest denominator.

Answer 2

You can compare them by either changing them to decimals or to equivalent fractions with the same denominators.

3/6 = 12/24 = 0.5
3/8 = 9/24 = 0.375
