No, Dan is not correct. 3/5 is not the same as 3.5

3/5 is saying 3 out of 5, which is a little more than one half between 1 and 2.
3.5 is saying 3 and a half, which is half way between the numbers 3 and 4.

Answer:

He is not correct


Explanation:

The first number is [tex] \frac{3}{5} [/tex]

We can note that the numerator is less than the denominator. This means that the given fraction is less than 1

In decimal form, [tex] \frac{3}{5} [/tex] is equal to 0.6


The second number is 3.5

We can note that this number is greater than 1.


This means that the two numbers are not equal


Hope this helps :)
