Question

select the correct Statement for the following 1. 7/9 less than 4/5 2. 2/6 greater than 3/9 3. -2/3 less than -4/5 4. -5/7 greater than -3/4

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

let take options

1) 7/9 and 4/5

multiply 7/9 numerator and demoniator by 5

so 7/9=35/45

multiply 4/5 numerator and demoniator by 9

so 4/5=36/45

35/45<36/45

so 7/9<4/5

2) 2/6 and 3/9

multiply 2/6 numerator and demoniator by 9

so 2/6=18/54

multiply 3/9 numerator and demoniator by 6

so 3/9=18/54

18/54=18/54

so 2/6=3/9

3) -2/3 and -4/5

multiply -2/3 numerator and demoniator by 5

so -2/3=-10/15

multiply -4/5 numerator and demoniator by 3

so -4/5=-12/15

-10/15>-12/15

so -2/3>-4/5

4) -5/7 and -3/4

multiply -5/7 numerator and demoniator by 4

so -5/7=-20/28

multiply -3/4 numerator and demoniator by 7

so -3/4=-21/28

-20/28>-21/28

so -5/7>-3/4

final results are 1 and 4 are true
