Texas 3rd Grade Math Question of the Day

Compare denominators only; both are 4, so the fractions are equal.

A bigger denominator means a bigger piece, so $1/4$ is greater than $3/4$.

Same denominator: when denominators are the same, the fraction with the larger numerator is greater. Since 3 > 1, $3/4 > 1/4$.

Add the numerator and denominator: 3+4=7 and 1+4=5; since 7 > 5, $3/4$ is greater.
