Question
Compare the fractions given below:
$\frac{4}{5},\frac{7}{10}$
$\frac{4}{5},\frac{7}{10}$
✓
Answer
L.C.M. of 5 and 10 = (5 × 2) = 10
Now, we convert $\frac{4}{5}$ into equivalent fractions having 10 as the denominator.
$\therefore\frac{4}{5}=\frac{4\times2}{5\times2}=\frac{8}{10}$
Clearly, $\frac{8}{10}<\frac{7}{10}$
$\therefore\frac{4}{5}<\frac{7}{10}$
