Compare the fractions
1/3
and
1/10

Given Fractions:  
1/3
and
1/10

Since the denominators are not common (not the same), we need to find the Least Common Denominator (LCD), which is equivalent to the Least Common Multiple of 3 and 10:
LCD = LCM(3, 10) = 30
Express the given fractions as equivalent fractions with respect to the LCD (30):
1/3
=
10/30
  and  
1/10
=
3/30
Since the equivalent fractions have common denominators, we can compare the numerators:
10 is greater than 3  (10 > 3)
As a result,  
10/30
  is greater than
3/30
Therefore,  
1/3
  is greater than
1/10
,  
1/3
>
1/10
