Answer:

No.

Explanation:

Without much calculation, we can notice that 18/14 is actually greater than 10/15 since its numerator is greater than its denominator, making it greater than 1. However, 10/15 is less than 18/14 since its numerator is less than its denominator making it less than 1. In short:

18/14 > 1

10/15 < 1

18/14 > 10/15
