darcy bake 8 muffins. She put blueberries in 5/8 of muffins. She put raspberries in 3/8 of the muffins. Did more muffins have blueberries or raspberries?

Respuesta :

When comparing fractions it is important to note the numerator and denominator. If the denominators are the same, the largest numerator is the larger number (because it represents more pieces of the same size). If the numerators are the same, then the smaller denominator is the larger number (because the pieces are bigger).

So in your problem,

5/8 is more than 3/8 So more muffins had blueberries.
5/8 - 3/8 = 2/8

Answer:

More muffins have blueberries than rasberries
(She put in 2/8 more blueberries)
