which is more 1/4 or 0.4
1/4 is 25%
and 0.4 is 40%
Therefore, 0.4 is greater.
we have
\(\frac{1}{4} \\ \\0.4\)
we know that
\(0.4=\frac{4}{10}\)
Multiply by \(\frac{2}{2}\)
\(\frac{4}{10}*\frac{2}{2}=\frac{8}{20}\)
Multiply the number \(\frac{1}{4}\) by \(\frac{5}{5}\)
\(\frac{1}{4}*\frac{5}{5}=\frac{5}{20}\)
I proceed to compare both numbers with the same denominator.
so
\(\frac{8}{20} > \frac{5}{20}\)
therefore
the answer is
\(0.4 > \frac{1}{4}\)
