Question

Which is greater 2/9 to 1/5

Answer 1

The answer would be 2/9 because 2/9 is equivalent to 10/45 and 1/5 is equivalent to 9/45, so 2/9 is bigger by 1/45.

Answer 2

First, find the common denominator. 

5 x 9 = 45 

1/5 = 9/45 (1 x 9 = 9) 

2/9 = 10/45 (2 x 5 =10) 

So, 2/9 is greater than 1/5 because 10 is greater than 9
