Answer:


(3)/(4) < (33)/(40)

Step-by-step explanation:


(3)/(4) (< = >)
(33)/(40)

To figure this out, you want both fractions to have the same denominator. So, you would find the GCF (Greatest Common Factor).

The GCF for 4 and 40 would be 40 because 4 * 10 = 40 and 40 * 1 = 40.

To make the whole fraction have the denominator 40, you have to multiply the numerator and the denominator by 10.


(3)/(4) = (30)/(40)

So,


(30)/(40) < (33)/(40)

or


(3)/(4) < (33)/(40)
