Karen measured an Orange and a tangerine. The orange Weighed 3/4 pounds. The tangerine weighed 4/6 pounds. To solve the problem we first have to make the denominators common. To make the denominators common you have to multiply by the GCF ( greatest common factor).
4/6 and 3/4's common denominator is 24
\(\frac{4}{6} = \frac{16}{24}\)
\(\frac{3}{4} = \frac{18}{24}\)
18/24>16/24, the orange is heavier
