Ex 2.2, 4 Which is greater: (i) 2/7 of 3/4 or 3/5 of 5/8 2/7 of 3/4 = 2/7 ร— 3/4 = (2 ร— 3)/(7 ร— 4) = 3/(7 ร— 12) = ๐Ÿ‘/๐Ÿ๐Ÿ’ 3/5 of 5/8 = 3/5 ร— 5/8 = (3 ร— 5)/(5 ร— 8) = ๐Ÿ‘/๐Ÿ– Now, We have to find greater of 3/14 & 3/8 To compare fractions, we make denominator equal. Common denominator = LCM of 14 & 8 = 2 ร— 2 ร— 2 ร— 7 = 8 ร— 7 = 56 So, 3/14 = 3/8 = โˆด 21/56 > 12/56 i.e. 3/8 > 3/14 โˆด 3/5 of 5/8 > 2/7 of 3/7 So, ๐Ÿ‘/๐Ÿ“ of ๐Ÿ“/๐Ÿ– is greater.
