Find equivalent fractions to compare. Then, write \( >,< \), or \( = \) \( \frac{2}{5} ? \frac{6}{10} \) \( \frac{2}{5} \square \frac{6}{10} \)

To compare the fractions \( \frac{2}{5} \) and \( \frac{6}{10} \), we can find equivalent fractions. Notice that \( \frac{6}{10} \) can be simplified by dividing both the numerator and denominator by 2, giving us \( \frac{3}{5} \). Now we can compare \( \frac{2}{5} \) and \( \frac{3}{5} \). Since \( 2 < 3 \), we can write \( \frac{2}{5} < \frac{6}{10} \). So, \( \frac{2}{5} \square \frac{6}{10} \) translates to \( \frac{2}{5} < \frac{6}{10} \).
