Question

State whether the given statement is true/false:

Fraction $\frac{5}{9}$ equal to $\frac{4}{5}$.

• A. True
• B. False

Answer 1

The correct option is B False

Given fraction is $\frac{5}{9}$ and $\frac{4}{5}$

Now, we can check it by using cross multiplication.

$5\times 5=25$ and $4\times 9=36$

so,$36>25$ so $\frac{5}{9}\ne \frac{4}{5}$
Hence the statement is false.
