    5/8>.62

    to get the answer, convert 5/8 into a decimal by dividing 5 by 8. 5 divided by 8= 0.625

    0.625 >0 .62

    (and a good way to remember < or > is think of them as alligator mouths...and the alligator eats the larger #). :P

  • 5/8 is bigger then 0.62

    5/8=0.625 so

    5/8>0.62
