To compare these fractions, bring them to the same denominator. Expand the fractions to bring them to the common denominator (LCM):
7/8 = (2 * 7) / (2 * 8) = 14/16
13/16 = (1 * 13) / (1 * 16) = 13/16
Same denominator fractions sorted ascending:
13/16 < 14/16
Initial fractions in ascending order:
13/16 < 7/8
keeping in mind that standard form for a linear equation means
• all coefficients must be integers, no fractions
• only the constant on the right-hand-side
• all variables on the left-hand-side, sorted
• "x" must not have a negative coefficient
