Solution

The given fractions 610,45 are unlike fractions because they have different denominators.

When we compare two unlike fractions, we first get their equivalent fractions with a denominator which is a common multiple of the denominators of both the fractions.

The LCM of 10 and 5 is 10.

The equivalent fractions with the same denominator are :

610=6×110×1=610 and 45=4×25×2=810

Now, 610 < 810

610<45
