KC1
Replace the ● with <, >, or = to make a true sentence. Compare Fractions Replace the ● with <, >, or = to make a true sentence. Step 1 The LCM of the denominators, 21 and 7, is 21. So, the LCD is 21. Step 2 Write an equivalent fraction with a denominator of 21 for each fraction. ×1 ×3 Example 1
Compare Fractions Step 3 Answer: Example 1
Replace the ● with <, >, or = to make a true sentence. B. > C. = A B C Example 1
Replace the ● with <, >, or = to make a true sentence. Compare Mixed Numbers Replace the ● with <, >, or = to make a true sentence. Since the whole numbers are the same, compare Step 1 The LCM of the denominators, 3 and 6, is 6. So, the LCD is 6. Example 2
Compare Mixed Numbers Step 2 Write an equivalent fraction with a denominator of 6 for each fraction. ×2 ×1 Step 3 , since 2 = 2. Answer: Example 2
Replace the ● with <, >, or = to make a true sentence. B. > C. = A B C Example 2
