Question

Find out which fraction is greater?

$\frac{12}{15}$ or $\frac{25}{30}$

Answer 1

consider $\frac{12}{15}$or $\frac{25}{30}$

on cross multiplication

$$\begin{gathered} \frac{12}{15}?\frac{25}{30} \\ 12\times 30?25\times 15 \\ 360?375 \\ 360<375 \end{gathered}$$

Since $375$ is greater than $360$

$\therefore \frac{25}{30}>\frac{12}{15}$

Hence, $\frac{25}{30}$is grater than $\frac{12}{15}$.
