Comparing and Ordering Fractions
A food truck is preparing recipes and sharing trays at a weekend market. Compare fractions carefully, show your reasoning where asked, and use the number line to help with ordering.

1.Two pizza trays are the same size. Tray A has 5/8 covered with toppings and Tray B has 3/4 covered. Which tray has more topping? Choose the greater fraction.
- 5/8
- 3/4
- They have the same amount
2.A recipe uses 2/3 of a cup of yoghurt. Another uses 5/9 of a cup. Write <, > or = to make this comparison true: 2/3 5/9.
