Question

How to compare fractions with different denominators?

Answer 1

Answer:

LCM

Step-by-step explanation:

We can find the lcm of the two denominators and then multiply the same with numerator and compare.

Ex: 2/5 and 5/7

LCM of 5 and 7 is 35

So we do (2 x 7 / 5 x 7) and (5 x 5 / 7 x 5)

It will make 14/35 and 25/35

25 is greater than 14.

So 5/7 is greater.
