Given,
Rena got 2/7 part of an apple
Sonal got 4/5 part of an apple
Now, Comparing 2/7 and 4/5
Equalising the denominators by taking LCMs
Here, LCM of 7 and 5 is 35
Therefore,
2/7= 2/7 × 5/5 = 10/35
and,
4/5= 4/5 × 7/7 = 28/35
Now, As the denominators are equal, we can compare the numerators,
Because, 28>10
Therefore Sonal got a larger part.
