Question

Is 11/12 equivalent or greater to 11/13​

Answer 1

`(11)/(12) > (11)/(13)`

Explanation:

Here , the fraction has same numerators but the denominators are different. Whenever any 2 fractions have same numerator but diffeent denominators , the fraction whose denominator is less is greater than the fraction whose denominator is more.

Here 11 is common in both the numerators but when we talk about denominators , 12 < 13 . So,

`(11)/(12) > (11)/(13)`

Verification :-

`(11)/(12) = 0.9166666667 = 0.91(appx)`

`(11)/(13) = 0.8461538462 = 0.84(appx)`
