We review the steps to solving word problems. We can use the strategy "Act it Out" to solve comparison problems. We can use fraction strips or fraction circles to represent each fraction and compare the models. When the denominators are the same, we can compare fractions by their numerators. When the denominators are different from each other, the sizes of each unit fraction are different. We use the less than, greater than, or equal to symbol to compare fractions in word problems.
