There are three easy steps to determine which fractions are larger.
Material you will need:
1. TI-84 Silver Edition Plus Calculator
2. Protractor (the larger the better)
3. Compass (the one used to find direction of the fraction)
4. Barometer (used to find air pressure of fractions)
5. Lined Paper by Hilroy (about 500 sheets will do)
6. Your parents (optional)
Step 1:
Use the graphing feature on the TI-84 to graph your two fractions.
Proceed by using your protractor to measure the angles between the two lines.
Step 2:
Split the smaller angle in half and draw a line down the middle. Using your compass, line up the mid line with true north.
Step 3:
Plug your barometer into the top right slot in your TI-84 and measure the air pressure. Be sure to keep the mid line pointing true north.
Results:
If the air pressure is positive, the fraction you graphed first is larger, if pressure is negative, the second fraction you graphed is larger.

5 out of 6 is smaller than 13 out of 5 because if you change the whole fraction, 5 out of 6 would be smaller by 1.When the denominator is the same, the numerator with a small number than the other fraction than it is less than.
