Given :   13/17 and 0.82

To find :   Which number is greater

Solution:

13/17   ?  0.82

13/17    ?   82/100

=> 13/17  ?  41/50

Cross multiplication

13 * 50    ?  41 * 17

650  ?   697

Hence

650  <  697

=> 13/17   <   41/50

=> 13/17  <  0.82

another method

13/17   ?  0.82

13/17    ?   82/100

=> 13/17  ?  41/50

=> 39/51  ?  41/50

on Left hand side numerator < right side  &

also denominator on left side  > Right side

hence

39/51  <  41/50

=>  13/17  <  0.82

Easier method depends upon user
