Answer:

Dude come on man 2/9

Step-by-step explanation: you can see that 2/9 clearly takes up more space than 9/111ths

I still love you though.

To get the answer, we first convert each fraction into decimal numbers. We do this by dividing the numerator by the denominator for each fraction as illustrated below:

2/9 = 0.222

9/11 = 0.818

Then, we compare the two decimal numbers to get the answer.

0.222 is not greater than 0.818.

Therefore, 2/9 is not greater than 9/11 and the answer to the question "Is 2/9 greater than 9/11?" is no.

Which means that this equation is also true: 2/9 < 9/11

Note: When comparing fractions such as 2/9 and 9/11, you could also convert the fractions (if necessary) so they have the same denominator and then compare which numerator is larger.
