Answer 1

Answer:

first find the Least Common factors of denominators of both fraction.

since,16×9 =144

9/16 = 9×9/16×9 = 81/144

now in the second fraction

5/9=5×16/9×16=80/144

since denominators are now the same, the fraction with the bigger numerator is the greater fraction.

81/144>80/144 or 9/16>5/9
