Given Fractions:
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 4 and 16:
LCD = LCM(4, 16) = 16
Express the given fractions as equivalent fractions with respect to the LCD (16):
12 is less than 13 (12 < 13)
As a result,
3/4
and 13/16
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 4 and 16:
LCD = LCM(4, 16) = 16
Express the given fractions as equivalent fractions with respect to the LCD (16):
3/4
= 12/16
and 13/16
= 13/16
Since the equivalent fractions have common denominators, we can compare the numerators:12 is less than 13 (12 < 13)
As a result,
12/16
is less than 13/16
Therefore, 3/4
is less than 13/16
, 3/4
< 13/16
