Four friends are running a race:
Emily ran 2/5 of a mile.
Finn ran 3/4 of a mile.
Greta ran 1/2 of a mile.
Henry ran 4/6 of a mile. Who ran the farthest?
Answer: Finn
Explanation:
Find a common denominator for all the fractions. In this case, 20 works well.
Convert each fraction to an equivalent fraction with a denominator of 20:
Emily: 2/5 = 8/20
Finn: 3/4 = 15/20
Greta: 1/2 = 10/20
Henry: 4/6 = 13 1/3 /20
Compare the numerators. 15 is the largest numerator, so Finn ran the farthest.

A juice box is filled with juice.
At breakfast, 2/9 of the juice is drunk.
At lunch, the rest of the juice is drunk.
Which statement is true?
A. More juice was drunk at breakfast than at lunch.
B. More juice was drunk at lunch than at breakfast.

Diesel and Jett are painting a fence. Diesel paints 3/4 of the fence, and Jett paints 1/2 of the fence.
Which statement correctly compares the fraction of the fence each person painted?
A. 3/4 < 1/2
B. 3/4 = ½
C. 3/4 > ½
D. 1/2 > 3/4
Answer: C. 3/4 > 1/2
Explanation:
To compare, find a common denominator. The least common denominator for 4 and 2 is 4.
Convert 1/2 to an equivalent fraction with a denominator of 4: (1 * 2) / (2 * 2) = 2/4
Now compare: 3/4 > 2/4
Therefore, Diesel painted a greater portion of the fence.

Alice, Bob, Carol, and David are baking cookies.
Alice uses 1/3 cup of sugar.
Bob uses 3/8 cup of sugar.
Carol uses 5/6 cup of sugar.
David uses 2/4 cup of sugar.
Who used the most sugar?
Answer: Carol
Explanation:
Find a common denominator for all the fractions. In this case, 24 works well.
Convert each fraction to an equivalent fraction with a denominator of 24:
Alice: 1/3 = 8/24
Bob: 3/8 = 9/24
Carol: 5/6 = 20/24
David: 2/4 = 12/24
Compare the numerators. 20 is the largest numerator, so Carol used the most sugar.
Dasha bought 8 bags of candy for the class party. There were a total of 446 pieces of candy. Which of these is the best estimate of the number of pieces of candy in each bag?
Answer: C. 60 pieces
Explanation:
To estimate the number of pieces of candy in each bag, we can round the total number of pieces of candy to 450 and the number of bags to 8. Then, we can divide 450 by 8 to get an estimate of 56.25. Since the answer choices are whole numbers, the best estimate would be 60 pieces per bag.
