I can't seem to know your thought. lol. I would use 1/2

Answer 2

denominator is 8\[\frac{1}{2}=\frac{1*4}{2*4}=\frac{4}{8}\]\[\frac{5}{8}>\frac{4}{8}\]than 5/8>1/2

Answer 3

Yes, not sure what you mean, but when adding fractions you can switch it so they both have same denominator, makes it easier to add. it becomes
(5/8)+(4/8)
