Convert them to decimals.
1/10 is .10
1/16 is .062.
1/10 is bigger.
Another faster is to look at the denominators, but it can be misleading sometimes.
Hope this helps,

Answer:15
Step-by-step explanation:
Let's call the missing side ? as shown in the problem.
Now set up a equation where everything adds up to 28x+11
?+8x+2+8x+2+5x+12=28x+11
?+21x+16=28x+11
?=28x-21x+11-16
?=7x-5
So 7x-5 is the missing side!
Hope it helps :D
Answer:
D. 12
Step-by-step explanation:
Based on the Angle Bisector theorem, the opposite sides of ∆ABC are divided into proportional segments alongside the two other sides of the triangle, as BD bisects the <ABC. This implies that:
AB/AD = CB/CD
Substitute
AB/8 = 6/4
Cross multiply
AB*4 = 6*8
AB*4 = 48
AB = 48/4
AB = 12
