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 25 and 986:
LCD = LCM(25, 986) = 24,650
Express the given fractions as equivalent fractions with respect to the LCD (24,650):
9,350 is less than 21,692 (9,350 < 21,692)
As a result,
374/986
and 22/25

LCD = LCM(25, 986) = 24,650
Express the given fractions as equivalent fractions with respect to the LCD (24,650):
374/986
= 9,350/24,650
and 22/25
= 21,692/24,650
Since the equivalent fractions have common denominators, we can compare the numerators:9,350 is less than 21,692 (9,350 < 21,692)
As a result,
9,350/24,650
is less than 21,692/24,650
Therefore, 374/986
is less than 22/25
, 374/986
< 22/25
