Question

19 BY 17 AND 21 BY 16 WHICH IS GREATER

Answer 1

Heya !!!

Here is your answer.

Given :
19/17 And 21/16.

We have to compare them....

Let us make them a fraction with same denominators.

So, taking LCM..
LCM (16, 17) = 2×2×2×2×17 = 272.

Now,
$\frac{19}{17} = \frac{304}{272}$
and
$\frac{21}{16} = \frac{357}{272}$

As, 357/272 is greater than 304/272.

So,
21/16 > 19/17.

Hope It Helps
