Let's solve each problem by comparing the fraction on the left with the decimal on the right. We'll convert the fractions to decimals and then compare them.

Step-by-step Solutions:
1) $ \frac{7}{8} = 0.875 $ → $ 0.875 > 0.825 $ →
>
2) $ \frac{4}{6} = \frac{2}{3} \approx 0.666... $ → $ 0.666... < 0.667 $ →
<
3) $ \frac{5}{6} \approx 0.8333 $ → $ 0.8333 > 0.708 $ →
>
4) $ \frac{2}{3} \approx 0.666... $ → $ 0.666... = 0.667 $? Wait, actually $ 0.666... < 0.667 $ →
<
(Note: 0.666... is less than 0.667 since 0.667 is slightly larger)
5) $ \frac{2}{4} = 0.5 $ → $ 0.5 > 0.4 $ →
>
6) $ \frac{1}{2} = 0.5 $ → $ 0.5 = 0.5 $ →
=
7) $ \frac{1}{2} = 0.5 $ → $ 0.5 < 0.6 $ →
<
8) $ \frac{4}{6} = \frac{2}{3} \approx 0.666... $ → $ 0.666... < 0.717 $ →
<
9) $ \frac{4}{5} = 0.8 $ → $ 0.8 > 0.65 $ →
>
10) $ \frac{2}{3} \approx 0.666... $ → $ 0.666... < 0.667 $ →
<
11) $ \frac{1}{2} = 0.5 $ → $ 0.5 < 0.625 $ →
<
12) $ \frac{1}{8} = 0.125 $ → $ 0.125 > 0.1 $ →
>
13) $ \frac{5}{8} = 0.625 $ → $ 0.625 = 0.625 $ →
=
14) $ \frac{4}{5} = 0.8 $ → $ 0.8 < 0.95 $ →
<
15) $ \frac{3}{4} = 0.75 $ → $ 0.75 < 0.875 $ →
<
16) $ \frac{3}{4} = 0.75 $ → $ 0.75 > 0.625 $ →
>
17) $ \frac{2}{5} = 0.4 $ → $ 0.4 = 0.4 $ →
=
18) $ \frac{6}{8} = \frac{3}{4} = 0.75 $ → $ 0.75 < 0.825 $ →
<
19) $ \frac{2}{3} \approx 0.666... $ → $ 0.666... > 0.592 $ →
>
20) $ \frac{2}{3} \approx 0.666... $ → $ 0.666... < 0.692 $ →
