Answer 1

Solution :-

Ratios are - 17 : 18 and 10 : 11

⇒ 17/18 and 10/11

Now, we will cross multiply the numerator of the first with the denominator of the second and denominator of the first with the numerator of the second

⇒ 17*11 and 18*10

⇒ 187 and 180

Hence, 17/18 or 17 : 18 has the greater value than 10/11 or 10 : 11.

Answer 2

Solution:

Given:

2 ratios = 17/18 : 10/11

Take the L.C.M of the denominator 18 &11

L.C.M of 18 & 11 is 198

17×11/18×11 :10×18 / 11×18

187/198 : 180 /198

17/18 : 180/198

17/18 > 180/198

Hence, 17/18 is greater than 10/11
