Question

Compare the ratio : (5:6), (8:9), (11:18)​

Answer 1

Answer:

(11:18) < (5:6) < (8:9)

Step-by-step explanation:

we have to compare the given ratio:

(5:6) , (8:9) , (11:18)

we can see that denominators of given problem can be equalized to '18'

let's multiply (5:6) with (3/3)

= (5:6)(3/3)

= (5/6)(3/3)

= (5X3)/(6X3) = (15/18)

multiply (8:9) with (2/2) to get denominator as '18'

=(8:9)(2/2)

=(8/9)(2/2)

=(8X2)/(9X2)

=(16/18)

multiply (11:18) with '1'

=(11:18)(1)

=(11/18)

so  (5:6) , (8:9) , (11:18)  becomes  (15/18) , (16/18) , (11/18)

let's compare nominators of above information because denominators are equal:

comparing   15 , 16 , 11

we get  :  

11 < 15 < 16

so (11/18) <  (15/18) <  (16/18)

⇒ (11:18) < (5:6) < (8:9)
