Best Answer

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
