Answer 2

Answer:

<

Step-by-step explanation:

When comparing fractions and decimals/fractions and percentages/decimals and percentages, it's always good to convert them to have the same type on either side. However, you don't really need to with this problem.

Here's a trick: the larger the denominator is in a fraction, the smaller the value of the fraction is. If the fraction on the left were 5/10, then we know that it would be equal to 0.5 (you can convert either one). Now, since the denominator of the fraction is one greater than 10, we know that the fraction's value is just a little bit less than 5/10. This makes the fraction less than 0.5.

I hope it made sense. Brainliest would be cool but no worries.
