    Let's compare apples to apples by finding a common denominator ...

    2/3

    7/8

    3*8 = 24 we'll use that

    You multiply 3 by 8 to get 24 in the denominator, so multiply the numerator by the same amount ...

    2/3 * 8/8 = 16/24

    Do the same with the other fraction but multiply by 3 ...

    7/8 * 3/3 = 21/24

    Now we can compare ...

    16/24 is less than 21/24 so 2/3 is less than 7/8.
