You need to be able to compare two fractions at a time, to see which one is greater. One way to do this is to convert two fractions at a time to a common denominator. It need not be the least common denominator - any common denominator will do, therefore you can just multiply the two denominators. Another way to compare fractions is to convert them to decimal. This can quickly be done with a calculator.
