Question

compare the following rational numbers:-. a).-¾,-⅔​

Answer 1

Answer:

Make the denominators common i.e take l.c.m of 4 and 3

l.c.m of 4&3 is 12

$\frac{ - 3}{4} \times \frac{3}{3} = \frac{ - 9}{12}$

$\frac{ - 2}{3} \times \frac{4}{4} = \frac{ - 8}{12}$

$\frac{ - 9}{12} > \frac{ - 8}{12}$

so,

$\frac{ - 3}{4} > \frac{ - 2}{3}$
