When you are asked to express an inequality equation, you will have to use the < or > symbols. These are used when you want to compare the values of two quantities. The pointed side must point towards the lesser value, while the open side must face towards the greater value. Using a calculator 11 12/13 is equal to 11.923, while 11 11/12 is equal to 11.917. Thus, the equation is

11 12/13 > 11 11/12
