8/9 is greater than 5/6

Step-by-step explanation:

Steps for comparing fractions

Find the least common denominator or LCM of the two denominators:

LCM of 9 and 6 is 18

For the 1st fraction, since 9 × 2 = 18,

8 /9  =  

8 × 2 = 16

9 × 2  =  18

Likewise, for the 2nd fraction, since 6 × 3 = 18,

5 /6  =  5 × 3

6 × 3  =  15 /18

Since the denominators are now the same, the fraction with the bigger numerator is the greater fraction

16 /18  >  15 /18  or  8 /9  >  5 /6

the answer is 16/18 and 15/18 for the first part, and > for the second part

Step-by-step explanation:

The common denominator for both is 18, because you can multiply 6 by 3 to get 18, and 9 by two to get 18. Then you multiply both the numerators and denominators by the same number, so since we multiplied 9 by 2, we must also do that for 8, and since we multiplied 6 by 3, we must also do that for 5. We get the fractions 16/18 and 15/18. Since they both have the same denominator now, we can compare them directly. 16 out of 18 equal parts (16/18) is greater than 15 out of 18 equal parts (15/18), so 16/18 > 15/18.
