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 7 and 9:
LCD = LCM(7, 9) = 63
Express the given fractions as equivalent fractions with respect to the LCD (63):
35 is greater than 27 (35 > 27)
As a result,
5/9
and 3/7
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 7 and 9:
LCD = LCM(7, 9) = 63
Express the given fractions as equivalent fractions with respect to the LCD (63):
5/9
= 35/63
and 3/7
= 27/63
Since the equivalent fractions have common denominators, we can compare the numerators:35 is greater than 27 (35 > 27)
As a result,
35/63
is greater than 27/63
Therefore, 5/9
is greater than 3/7
, 5/9
> 3/7
