Answer:

a)
(4)/(5)

b)
(3)/(35) \: \: larger

.

Explanation:

Given:


(4)/(5) \: and \: (5)/(7)

a) In order to find the larger fraction, we have to make their denominator the same (it's 35 (multiply both fractions' denominators) in this case)


(4 * 7)/(35) = (28)/(35)


(5 * 5)/(35) = (25)/(35)


(28)/(35) > (25)/(35)

.

b) In order to find how much larger it is, we have to subtract the smaller fraction from the larger one (find the difference):


(28)/(35) - (25)/(35) = (3)/(35)
