Question
Select the correct statement from the following.
✓
Answer
- $\frac{-2}{3}<\frac{-4}{5}$
Solution:
$\frac{-2}{3}<\frac{-4}{5}$
Taking LCM of 3 and 5,
LCM = 15,
So, $\frac{-2\times5}{3\times5},\frac{-4\times3}{5\times3}$
$\Rightarrow\frac{-10}{15},\frac{-12}{15}$
Now, since both the denominator is equal so, we compare its numerator,
and since, -10 < -12
So, $\frac{-10}{15}>\frac{-12}{15}$
thus, $\frac{-2}{3}>\frac{-4}{5}$
