Jordan has 5/8 can of green paint and 3/6 can of blue paint. If the cans are the same size, does Jordan have more green paint or blue paint? Explain.

He has more green paint. To compare the fractions, you need to find the least common denominator. What number does 8 & 6 both go into? 24 is the LCD.

[tex] \frac{5}{8} = \frac{15}{24} \\ \\ \frac{3}{6} = \frac{12}{24} \\ \\ [/tex]
