If both fractions are made up of positive integers then the easiest method is to cross-multiply.
If you want to compare A/B and C/D
look at AD and CB
If AD > CB then the fraction with A in it ie A/B is bigger.
If CB > AD then the fraction with C in it ie C/D is bigger.
If AD = BC, the two fractions are equal.
