Here we have to compare 15/12 and 7/16.

  • For 15/12, The numerator is divided by a number that is smaller than it, that is 12.

        So, the result will be more than one.

  • For 7/16, The numerator is a small number and the denominator greater number.

        So the result will be less than 1 .

            \frac{15}{12} = 1.25  and    \frac{7}{16} = 0.43

        Clearly, 15/12 is greater than 7/16

                         \frac{15}{12} >\frac{7}{16}
