Im not sure what the answer is D:

Answer 1

You can use a calculator and make all the fractions into decimals.

Answer 2

so 1 would be 0.5 and 3/5 would be 35.0?

Answer 3

No.

1 is 1.0.

3/5 means how many times does 5 go into 3.

Answer 4

but then 3/5 is 1.666666....

Answer 5

5/3 is 1.6666

When the numerator is greater than the denominator, then the number is greater than 1.

That is the answer.

We could eliminate b because it is less than 3/5.
We could eliminate a because it is greater than 1.

Haha, practice makes perfect.

Once you do enough fractions, you'll be able to glance and tell that 5/9 = 0.55555, and 3/8 = 0.375, and 5/8 is 0.625.
