    Get a common denominator.

    5/6 = 20/24

    5/8 = 15/24

    20/24 > 15/24

    Answer: 5/6 is greater than 5/8

    If you have the same denominator, for example, 48 (6times 8 is 48), you can multiply the numerators 5 by 8 (since 6 is multiplied by 8) and 5 times 6 since 8 is multiplied by 6.

    It comes out like 40/48 (5 times 8) and 30 / 48 (5 times 6)

    Therefore, because 40 is greater than 30, 5/6 is greater than 5/8
