Answer:

For the two fractions 4/5 and 5/6, the least common denominator is 30. The fraction 4/5 is equivalent to 24/30 (To get this I multiplied both the numerator and denominator by 6). ... Since 25 is greater than 24, 25/30 (or originally 5/6) is the larger fraction

Step-by-step explantion

Compare fractions with the same denominator by determining the relationship between the numerators. For example, 3/5 is less than 4/5 because 3 is less than 4
