Comparing fractions operation:
1/3 vs. 7/10
Reduce (simplify) fractions to their lowest terms equivalents:
1/3 already reduced to lowest terms, numerator and denominator have no common prime factors, their prime factorization:
1 cannot be prime factorized and 3 is a prime number;
7/10 already reduced to lowest terms, numerator and denominator have no common prime factors, their prime factorization:
7 is a prime number and 10 = 2 * 5;
To sort fractions, build up their numerators the same.
Expand the fraction having 1 as a numerator (build up fraction by multiplying its numerator and denominator by the same number), so that the numerators are the same:
1/3 = (7 * 1)/(7 * 3) = 7/21;
Fractions have equal numerators, simply compare their denominators.
The larger the denominator the smaller the positive fraction.
::: Comparing operation :::
Final answer:
Fractions sorted in ascending order:
7/21 < 7/10
Initial fractions in ascending order:
1/3 < 7/10
Hope it's help you ✌️✌️
