MCQ
Mark $(\checkmark)$ against the correct answer in the following: Which is smaller between $\frac{-5}{6}$ and $\frac{-7}{12}?$
  • $\frac{-5}{6}$
  • B
    $\frac{-7}{12}$
  • C
    $\frac{6}{5}$
  • D
    Cannot be compared.

Answer

Correct option: A.
$\frac{-5}{6}$
Since $LCM$ of $6$ and $12$ is $12$
$\frac{-5\times2}{6\times}=\frac{-10}{12}$
$\frac{-7\times1}{12\times1}=\frac{-7}{12}$
$\frac{-5}{6}<\frac{-7}{12}$
