$\frac{2}{3}\text{is \_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_}\frac{4}{3}$.

• A. equal to
• B. greater than
• C. less than
• D. thrice of

Answer 1

The correct option is C less than

Here, $\frac{2}{3}$ and $\frac{4}{3}$ are like fractions with the denominator as 3.
Now, we compare only the numerators and observe that 2 < 4.
$\Rightarrow \frac{2}{3}<\frac{4}{3}$
$\therefore \frac{2}{3}\text{is less than}\frac{4}{3}$.
