Alright!
In order to properly compare these numbers, they need to look the same!
Lets change 2 8/24 into a decimal.
To do this, we need to convert it into an improper fraction
Follow these steps:
[tex]2 \frac{8}{24} \\[/tex]
We multiply the whole number (2) by the denominator (24) and then add the numerator (8). The improper fraction will keep the same denominator (24) at the end.
2 × 24 = 48
48 + 8 = 56
[tex]\frac{56}{24}[/tex]
Now, lets use a calculator to see what 56/24 is!
56 ÷ 24 = 2.33
237.5 is GREATER than [tex]2 \frac{8}{24} \\[/tex]
Hope I helped! Comment if you have questions :)
