2/9; 2/3; 8/21
1/5 ; 3/7 ; 7/10
Answers
Step-by-step explanation:
(i) 2/9, 2/3, 8/21
Solution:-
LCM of 9, 3, 21 = 63
Now, let us change each of the given fraction into an equivalent fraction having 63 as the denominator.
[(2/9) × (7/7)] = (14/63)
[(2/3) × (21/21)] = (42/63)
[(8/21) × (3/3)] = (24/63)
Clearly,
(42/63) > (24/63) > (14/63)
Hence,
(2/3) > (8/21) > (2/9)
Hence, the given fractions in descending order are (2/3), (8/21), (2/9)
(ii) 1/5, 3/7, 7/10
Solution:-
LCM of 5, 7, 10 = 70
Now, let us change each of the given fraction into an equivalent fraction having 70 as the denominator.
[(1/5) × (14/14)] = (14/70)
[(3/7) × (10/10)] = (30/70)
[(7/10) × (7/7)] = (49/70)
Clearly,
(49/70) > (30/70) > (14/70)
Hence,
(7/10) > (3/7) > (1/5)
Hence, the given fractions in descending order are (7/10), (3/7), (1/5)
hope it helps you
2/9, 2/3, 8/21
⇒ 14/63, 42/63, 24/63 [Converting into like fractions]
⇒ 42/63 > 24/63 > 14/63 [Arranging in descending order]
Therefore, 2/3 > 8/21 > 2/9

1/5 , 3/7 , 7/10
LCM=70
1/5 =14/70
3/7 = 30/70
7/10 = 49/70
Descending order = 49/70 , 30/70 , 14/70.
=7/10 , 3/7 , 1/5.
