Which is the larger fraction?
(i) or
(ii) or
(iii) or
The fractions are shown below using greater than or less than sign
(i)
(ii)
(iii)
i) Since in the second term, both 8 and 10 are divisible by two...so 8/10 will become 4/5. When you will divide 7/10 and 4/5, the answers will come as 0.7 and 0.8 respectively, thus giving the answer as 8/10>7/10.
ii) Since the denominators are same, i.e., 24....we will only consider numerators 11 and 13. So the answer will be 13/24>11/24.
iii) In the first term 17/102, both are divisible by 17 which gives us 1/6 and 12/102 is divisible by 6, giving us 2/17. We will divide each term and check the answers. 1/6 is equals to 0.16 and 2/17 is equals to 0.117, thus the answer will be 17/102>12/102.
