    To answer this question, you need to makes the unit of the smartphone screen same. In this case, phone A is using decimal and phone B is using a fraction. You can use which was easier.

    Let's try to use decimal. Then you need to convert phone B fraction width into decimal width. The calculation would be: 5cm + 1/3cm = 5 cm + 0.333cm = 5.333cm

    From here it clear that phone B has a wider screen than phone A.
