Need common denominator to make positively sure. 40 looks good.

4*11/4*10

= 44/40

--------------

5*7/5*8

= 35/40

----------------

11/10, when given the common denominator is only 4 numbers away from (40/40 ) 1. while 7/8, when given the common denominator is 5 numbers away from that form of 1

so,

11/10 is closer to 1
