b)8/15 < 95/14
c) 12/75 = 32/200
Step-by-step explanation:
Given:
a)11/16 14/15
b)8/15 95/14
c) 12/75 32/200
To find:
correct numerical sign
Solution:
A number is compared in cases and the signs used for this comparison are >, or <, or, =. These signs are read as greater than, less than, and equal to.
When two numbers, fractions, or decimals are compared these signs can be used to fill their nature.
In the examples, there are fractions compared
So we convert the decimal form of those fractions to find the greater/less number.
a)
The decimal form of the fractions is & is
When we compare the decimal forms of the numbers we get that
0.9333 is greater than 0.6875
which is 14/15 & 11/16 fraction wise
∴ The sign will open the mouth towards the greater fraction 14/15
∴ 11/16 < 14/15
b)
Similarly, we get the decimal forms of the fraction
We get as & as
As we see, 6.714 is greater than 0.5333
which will be 94/14 & 8/14 in fraction form
∴ The sign will open towards the fraction 94/14
∴ 8/15 < 95/14
c)
The decimal forms of the fractions are 0.16 & 0.16 respectively.
Both the decimal forms are equal in values
So, the fractions will also be equal to each other
∴ 12/75 = 32/200
