Answer 2

Find the least common denominator or LCM of the two denominators:

LCM of 9 and 10 is 90

Next, find the equivalent fraction of both fractional numbers with denominator 90

For the 1st fraction, since 9 × 10 = 90,

10

9

=  

10 × 10

9 × 10

=  

100

90

Likewise, for the 2nd fraction, since 10 × 9 = 90,

4

10

=  

4 × 9

10 × 9

=  

36

90

Since the denominators are now the same, the fraction with the bigger numerator is the greater fraction

100

90

>  

36

90

or  

10

9

>  

4
