For this question you should know:
7/8 is equal to 21/24
and
2/3 is equal to 16/24 
so now you can see that 21/24 is greater than 16/24 so 7/8 is greater than 2/3 :)))
I hope this is helpful
have a nice day

Yes, 2/3 is greater than 7/8, because if you cross multiply 2x8=16 and then 3x7=21. The 2/3 is the 21 and the 7/8 is the 16
