hey ... Find the least common denominator or LCM of the two denominators:
LCM of 4 and 8 is 8For the 1st fraction, since 4 × 2 = 8,
34 = 3 × 24 × 2 = 68Likewise, for the 2nd fraction, since 8 × 1 = 8,
78 = 7 × 18 × 1 = 78Since the denominators are now the same, the fraction with the bigger numerator is the greater fraction68 < 78 or 34 < 78
