1 is 5/5
we can change all those numbers into something over a factor of 5
--> 8/5 is larger than 5/5
5/9 = 21/9(5) = 21/45
we can apply the same process to 3/5: 3/5 = 3(9)/5(9) = 27/45
--> therefore 5/9 is less than 3/5
5/8 = 25/40
3/5 = 24/40
--> therefore 5/8 is in between 1 and 3/5
3/8 = 15/40
3/5 = 24/40
--> therefore, 3/8 is less than 3/5
your answer is 5/8 is in between 1 and 3/5
hope that helps :)
