If each lower number, or denominator, is the same, you can order them like whole numbers, for instance 1/5, 3/5, and 8/5. Otherwise, you can alter your list of fractions to use the same denominator, without changing the size of any fraction.
Well, it is 9 months, but the average month is 4.3 weeks long, not 4. - (52 weeks / 12 months = 4.333 weeks per month.) - 4.333 weeks x 9 months = 38.99 weeks. So 9 months is just about the average of the 38 and 40 week numbers. To sum up, doctors talk about pregnancy on a 40 week timeline, the actual gestational time is about 38 weeks. All the being said, there are some variances in baby due date accuracy. Posted by Bill, almost a dad
