Answer:


(6)/(7)

Explanation:


(4)/(9)or (6)/(7)

  1. First you need to find a common denominator. so you could just multiply 9 and 7 or you could write the factors of each number.
  2. 9*7 is 63, so that is your denominator.
  3. Multiply top and bottom of
    (4)/(9) by 7 and you should get
    (28)/(63).
  4. Multiply top and bottom of
    (6)/(7) by 9 and you should get
    (54)/(63).
  5. Is
    (28)/(63) or
    (54)/(63) bigger?

  6. (54)/(63) is bigger so your answer would be
    (6)/(7).

Hope this helps :)
