Typo

danjs · Answer

well they all have 8 inches and some change... so you just have to compare the fractions

danjs · Answer

1/2   ,   5/8  ,     3/4  ,     5/6

multiply them all by something to get them over the same denominator, then you can do a non-thinking direct comparison

danjs · Answer

put them all with 24 in the denominator
