Best Answer

Count your numbers

12,13,14, 15, etx.

Then 15 > 12.

However if you mean ratios, then the correct manner tyo indicate ration is

1:2 :: 1:5 Note the use of colons.

Ratio 1:5 is greater, because for every '1' you fain '5'.

If you have 2 apples.

you divide the first into 5 equal parts, the second apple you divide into 2 equal parts.

Which is greater? One piece from the first apple? or one piece from the second apple?

1/2 is the greater.

regards.

1/2 x 5 = 5/10

1/5 x 2 = 2/10

5/10 - 2/10 = 3/10

1/2 is greater than 1/5 by 3/10.
