Sharon measured two apples. The green apple weighed 3/8 pound. The red apple weighed 1/3 pound. Which Apple was heavier? Write an inequality to show how their weights compare.
3/8 is heavier because if you cross multiply you get 9. Draw up. When you cross multiply is 3×3=9 so 3/8 is 9 however 8×1=8 so 1/3 is 8 and 9 is larger than 8.
