The higher to top number related to the bottom number will tell.

Eg 67/80 is closer to 1 then 47/80

If you are to compare two fractions with different denominators (bottom number) then you'll need to convert them to a common demoninator.

Eg 5/8 and 3/4

They would become 5/8 and 6/8 as the 6/8 is the bigger number it is closest to 1.
