To compare fractions. Bring both fractions to a common denominator, and equivalent numerators.
Hence
7/16 : 3/7
The common denominator is 16 x 7 = 112
Hence
7(7)/112 & 3(16) /112
49/112 & 48/112
Compare the numerators
49 > 48 ( by '1').
Hence
Hence it follows that
7/16 > 3/7
5/8 is greater than 3/7.
Is < Less than or Greater than or > Greater than or Less than
It is > for less than and < for greater than.
The greater than sign is ">" and the less than sign is "<"
Its less than
4/7ths plus 4/7ths equals 8/7ths. This would be 1 and 1/7th
5/8 is greater than 3/7.
1/10 is less than any of them.
< > = Greater than , less than and equal too
Seven sixteenths of an ounce is the larger of the two. You convert 3/8ths to 16ths by multiplying both numbers by two. That gives you 6/16ths, which is less than 7/16ths.
Is < Less than or Greater than or > Greater than or Less than
500/7 would be a very safe bet.
Less than < Greater than >
Greater than: > Less than: <
greater than is > less than is <
less than
greater than > less than < pointy end towards the smaller value
