How to use denominators when comparing two fractions with the same numerators

Sholpan [36]

What you would do is take the denominators and multiply them by each other, then multiply the numerators by that same number. So like 4/10 and 4/9. You would say, (denominators) 10x9=90 and (numerators) 4x9=36. So your first fraction would be 36/90. Next, you would take (denominators) 9x10=90 and (numerators) 4x10=40. So your second fraction would become 40/90. Now it's a lot easier to compare. 36/90 < 40/90 would be the answer to my problem. I hope I helped!

<h3>What is Units conversion?</h3>

Unit conversion is a way of converting some common units into another without changing their real value. for, example, 1 centimetre is equal to 10 mm, though the real measurement is still the same the units and numerical values have been changed.

As it is given that one gram is equivalent to 0.035273 ounces, while 1 pound is equal to 16 ounces. Therefore, if we convert 0.45 pounds to grams,

Pounds to Ounces

$\rm 1\ pound = 16\ ounces\\\\0.45\ pounds = 0.45 \times 16 = 7.2\ ounces$
