Answer: True
=======================================
Step-by-step explanation:
For now, assume the inequality is true
We can cross multiply to get
2/11 < 5/22
2*22 < 11*5
44 < 55
Since the last inequality is true (44 is smaller than 55), this means the first inequality is also true.
------------
We could use a calculator to see that
2/11 = 0.1818 approximately
5/22 = 0.2273 approximately
Since 0.1818 is smaller than 0.2273, this means 2/11 is smaller than 5/22.
In other words, 0.1818 < 0.2273 leads to 2/11 < 5/22
------------
An alternative is to multiply 2/11 by 2/2 to get 4/22
So 2/11 < 5/22 would update to 4/22 < 5/22. Both have the same denominator so we just compare the numerators. Because 4 < 5 is true, this makes 4/22 < 5/22 true, and consequently 2/11 < 5/22 true as well.
