Greetings!
The best way to compare fractions is to find the LCM (The Lowest Common Denominator) of each of the fractions. This can be done simply by listing the multiples of the denominators.
Multiples:
3: 3,6,9,12,15,18,21,24,27...210,213
10:10,20,30,40,60,70,80...210,220
6: 6,12,18,24,30,36,42,48...210,216
7: 7,14,21,28,35,42,49...210,217
The LCM is 210:
3*70=210
10*21=210
6*35=210
7*30=210
Now, we must do what we do the denominators to the numerators:
1*70=70
70/210
2*21=42
42/210
1*35=35
=35/210
2*30=60
=60/210
The fraction with the largest numerator has the greatest value; In this case it 1/3 or 70/210.
Hope this helps.

Answer:
x=5
Step-by-step explanation:
2x=10
Divide each side by 2
2x/2 = 10/2
x = 5
The answer is 4
3 times 4 equals 12
A way to get the answer is by dividing 12 by 3 and you get 4 as well
Answer: Child is $1 and Adult is $3, per person.
Step-by-step explanation:
We have two unknowns, so we need at least two equations. Let C and A stand for the price of a ticket for a child and an adult, respectively.
The income for Monday and Tuesday can be calculated:
Monday: 16C + 42A = $142
Tuesday: 24C + 26A = $102
Rearrange the second equation to isolate one of the variables. I'll pick C:
24C + 26A = $102
C = ($102 - 26A)/24
Now use this expression for C in the first equation
16C + 42A = $142
16(($102 - 26A)/24) + 42A = $142
16(($102 - 26A)/24) + 42A = $142
(1632 - 416A)/24 + 42A = $142
(68 - 17.3333A + 42A = $142
24.6667A = 74
A = 3 [The price of an adult pool admission is $3]
Use this value in either equation to find the price of a child's admission:
24C + 26A = $102
24C + 26*($3) = $102
24C = 102 - 78
C = $1 [The price of a child's admission to the pool is $1]
Check to see if these prices satisfy both equations:
Monday: 16C + 42A = $142
Tuesday: 24C + 26A = $102
---
Monday: 16*(1) + 42*(3) = $142 ? YES
Tuesday: 24*(1) + 26*(3) = $102 ? YES
<u>Child is $1 and Adult is $3, per person.</u>
