Answer 2

Question -:

Which is bigger? 2/3 or 1/5?

$\sf\underline{Solution }\dag$

Compare $\frac{2}{3}$ and $\frac{1}{5}$

First, find the LCM of the denominators.

LCM of 3 and 5 = 3 × 5 = 15.

Then, convert them into equivalent like fractions.

Now,

$\frac{2}{3} = \frac{2 \times5 }{3 \times 5} = \frac{10}{15}$

$\frac{1}{5} = \frac{1 \times3 }{5 \times 3} = \frac{3}{15}$

Since $\frac{10}{15}$ is greater than $\frac{3}{15}$ , therefore, $\frac{2}{3}$ is greater than $\frac{1}{5}$

Hope it helps! :)
