Step-by-step explanation:
I believe your Question was,
"Without calculating it, how to figure out which expression is greater (3/8) × (1 - (1/3)) or
(3/8) × (1 - (1/3))/2."
Here,
If you closely observe, they are both the same numbers but in the 2nd multiplication it is halved.
See when a number is multiplied with another number, it will be always greater than half the number multiplied by the same another number
For ex:-
Let (3/8) = A and (1 - (1/3)) = B
So, (1 - (1/3))/2 = B/2
Now,
A × B = AB
and
A × B/2 = AB/2
Here, we can clearly say that, AB > AB/2
Thus, (3/8) × (1 - (1/3)) will be greater than
(3/8) × (1 - (1/3))/2.
Hope it helped and you understood it........All the best
