Which is bigger 4/5 or 9/10
To make it easier, we can change a fraction to have the same denominator so we can compare
Least Common Denominator
5 × 1 = 5 10 × 1 = 10
5 × 2 = 10
Least common denominator is 10
\(\frac{4*2}{5*2}\) and \(\frac{9}{10}\)
\(\frac{8}{10}\) and \(\frac{9}{10}\)
\(\frac{9}{10}\) > \(\frac{8}{10}\)
We see that more area is shaded in \(\frac{9}{10}\) than \(
\frac{8}{10}\)
\(\frac{9}{10}\) is bigger
