Question

`5/6 square 8/4`

Answer 1

`5/6` < `8/4`

Explanation:

Given rational numbers are `5/6` and `8/4`

We convert the rational numbers with the same denominators

∴ `(5 xx 2)/(6 xx 2) = 10/12` and `(8 xx 3)/(4 xx 3) = 24/12`  ......[∵ LCM of 6 and 4 = 12]

i.e. 24 > 10

⇒ `24/12` > `10/12`

Hence, `5/6` < `8/4`.
