Answer 2

Answer: -3/-2

Explanation:

In order to find which is the greater fraction we have to make either the numerator or the denominator same.

In this case I am making the denominator same,

• (5/9)×2 = 10/18
• (3/2)×9= 27/18

Now the denominators are same,we can apply this rule : 'As long as the denominators are the same, the fraction with the greater numerator is the greater fraction'

•°• -3/-2 > 5/9

nb: -3/-2 = 3/2

Hope this helped:)
