First step is to make the denominator in the two terms equal.
The denominator in the term 3/4 can be made 16 by multiplying the 4 by 4.
Therefore, we will multiply both the numerator and the denominator in this term by 4 (to keep the value of the term unchanged)
3/4 x 4/4 = 12/16

Now, we have the two terms 12/16 and 11/16
Since the denominators are equal, we will just compare the numerators where the greater term is the one having greater numerator.

Based on this:
The greater term is 12/16 which is 3/4
