Which is bigger 7/8 or 3/4?

Answers

Answer 1
Answer: to compare fractions to see which is greater or lesser we need to bring the fractions to a common denominator.

the denominators of the 2 fractions , 7/8 and 3/4 are 8 and 4 respectively.
we can multiply both numerator and denominator of 3/4 by 2 to get --> 6/8.
(3*2)/(4*2) =  (6)/(8)
then both 7/8 and 6/8 have same denominator and we can compare then. when denominator is same the bigger the numerator, greater the fraction is.
from 7/8 and 6/8,    7/8 is the larger fraction
answer is 7/8
Answer 2
Answer:

Answer:

(7)/(8)>(3)/(4)

7/8 is bigger

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : Two fractions (7)/(8) or  (3)/(4)

To find : Which is bigger in the given fractions.

Solution :

First we compare the fractions to see which is greater by taking the fractions to a common denominator.

The denominator of the given fractions (7)/(8) and (3)/(4) are 8 and 4 respectively.

Now, we have to make the denominator same

In  (7)/(8) multiply numerator and denominator by 4

=(7*4)/(8*4)=(28)/(32)

In  (3)/(4) multiply numerator and denominator by 8

=(3*8)/(4*8)=(24)/(32)

Now, the denominator is same so greater the numerator is greater the fraction.

So,(28)/(32)>(24)/(32)

Therefore,(7)/(8)>(3)/(4)

Why are the equations w - x + x = w and w + x - x = w called identities?

Answers

They are indentical because the only thing that switched was the addition sign, and subtraction sign. If you look closely.

Identities have the same solution, and they are also called 'infinities'. That is because they include many solutions.
