Question
$\frac{-3}{5}$ is the largest among $\frac{-3}{5},\frac{-7}{10}$

Answer

True.

Solution:

LCM of 5, 10 and 6 is 30

$\therefore\frac{-3\times6}{5\times6}=\frac{-18}{30}$

$\frac{-7\times3}{10\times3}=\frac{-21}{30}$

and $\frac{-5\times5}{-6\times5}=\frac{-25}{30}$

$\therefore\frac{-3}{5}$ is the largest among the given fractions.
