9/11 ------------------------------------------------------------------ Here's why (the workings): A division is the same as a fraction with the dividend as the numerator and the divisor as the denominator → 41 ÷ 50 = 41/50 → 9 ÷ 11 = 9/11 → 10 ÷ 11 = 10/11 To compare fractions, make them equivalent fractions with the same denominator and compare the numerators: 41/50 - (41×11)/(50×11) = 451/550 9/11 = (9×50)/(11×50) = 450/550 10/11 = (10×50)/(11×50) = 500/550 The difference between 451 and 450 is 1; the difference between 500 and 451 is 49; Therefore 451/550 is closer to 450/550 than to 500/550 → 41/50 is close to 9/11 than to 10/11 → 41 ÷ 50 is closer to 9 ÷ 11 than to 10 ÷ 11 41 divided by 50 is closer to 9 divided by 11
