They both go into 1440, for example.
to answer this we can either divide by the divisor in each and compare the decimals, or do it the fractions way. Convert the bottom number in each to the same number (do the same to the top also). See below for the worked example: Find a number that 9 and 11 go into equally. The lowest is 99 (gotten from multiplying 9x11). Then as there are 11 9's in 99, you multiply 4 by 11, which is 44. as there are 9 11's in 99, you multiply 5 by 9 4/9 becomes 44 over 99. 5/11 becomes 45. Therefore 5/11 is slightly greater than 4/9
Oh, dude, are we playing math games now? The smallest number that has 2, 4, and 9 as factors is actually just their product, which is 72. So, like, if you need to divide something equally between 2, 4, and 9 people, you're gonna need 72 of those things. Math can be fun, right?
9/4 is equal to the mixed number 2 1/4
40/9 = (36+4)/9 = 36/9 + 4/9 = 4 + 4/9 or 44/9
