Compare 5/7 & 7/8 ; which greater?
To compare , we bring to a common denominator of 56 ( 7 x 8 ) in this case.
We then make the numerators the equivalent fraction.
Hence
5/7 = 5(8)/7(8) & 7/8 = 7(7)/8(7)
5/7 = 40/56 & 7/8 = 49/56
We now compare numerators, because the denominators are the same value at '56'.
(top number)
40 < 49
Hence
40/56 < 49/56 It follows that 5/7 < 7/8
