(2)/(6)>\text{ }(2)/(15)

Here, we want to compare functions

To do this, we need to make sure the two fractions have the same denominator

Thus, we find the lowest common multiple of both denominators

This is the lowest common multiple of 6 and 15

The lowest common multiple of 6 and 15 is 30

Now, we multiply each of the fractions by 30

Thus, we have;


\begin{gathered} (2)/(6)*30\text{ = 10} \\ (2)/(15)*30\text{ = 4} \end{gathered}

As we can see, the first fraction yielded a greater value and thus it is the bigger of the two fractions
