Question

which one is greater 2/3 or -5/-11​

Answer 1

Answer:

The greater no. from 2/3 and -5/-11 is 2/3 So 2/3is the answer.

Answer 2

$\huge {\frac{2}{3}, \frac{ - 5}{ - 11} }$

On eliminating the negative signs of the second fraction we get:

$\huge {\frac{2}{3}, \frac{5}{11} }$

Now, LCM of 11 and 5 = 33 (11 × 3 = 33)

So the fractions on equalising the denominator will be:

$\huge {\frac{22}{33}, \frac{15}{11} }$

(the process is given in the attachment— arrows indicate way of multiplication, or which numbers to multiply with whom to equalise the denominator, and to find the values of the numerator according to the denominator)

Now, we can see that

$\huge {\frac{22}{33} > \frac{15}{11} }$

So, $\huge {\frac{2}{3}> \frac{ - 5}{ - 11} }$

(Since they are just the multiples of the respective fractions, and multiples of fractions are equal to the original fractions)
