Question

What is greater 2/3 or 7/9?

Answer 1

To decide which is greater we have to make a common denominator, for example by multiplying numerator and denominator by the same number in one fraction. Then we can look only on numerator and decide easily.


`(2)/(3)` =
`(2*3)/(3*3)` =
`(6)/(9)`

`(6)/(9) \ \textless \ (7)/(9)` - it's the result

Answer 2

7/9 would be higher than 2/3
