Answer 2

Answer:

no

Step-by-step explanation:

You can take LCM of 5 and 8 to make both the fractions denominator same

LCM=40

Now by multiplying fraction by appropriate number to both numerator and denominator

$\frac{2}{5}$ × $\frac{8}{8}$ =  $\frac{16}{40}$

$\frac{3}{8}$ × $\frac{5}{5}$ =  $\frac{15}{40}$

Now you can compare both fractions by numerator[as denominator is same}

$\frac{2}{5}$ is greater then $\frac{3}{8}$
