Answer 2

Answer:

5:12 < 7:9

Step-by-step explanation:

Given,

Ratio= 5:12 and 7:9

First find the LCM of denominators 12 and 9

So the LCM of 12 and 9 is 36

$\frac{5}{12}$= $\frac{5*3}{12*3}$= $\frac{15}{36}$

$\frac{7}{9}$= $\frac{7*4}{9*4}$= $\frac{28}{36}$

Here, we can say that 15 < 28

So, 5:12 < 7:9
