Question

What statement is true?

14/21 > 17/24
18/32 > 16/32
20/15 < 28/23
29/35 < 20/30

Answer 1

Answer:

$\frac{18}{32}>\frac{16}{32}$

Step-by-step explanation:

We need to find which statements are true.

Solution to find the same we will solve each statement and will conclude the same.

1.  $\frac{14}{21}>\frac{17}{24}$

Now On solving we get;

$\frac{14}{21} = 0.66$

$\frac{17}{24}=0.70$

So we can see that 0.70 > 0.66

Hence The given statement is False.

2. $\frac{18}{32}>\frac{16}{32}$

Now On solving we get;

$\frac{18}{32}=0.5625$

$\frac{16}{32}= 0.5$

So we can see that 0.5625 > 0.5

Hence The given statement is True.

3.  $\frac{20}{15}<\frac{28}{23}$

Now On solving we get;

$\frac{20}{15} = 1.33$

$\frac{28}{23}=1.2$

So we can see that 1.33 > 1.2

Hence The given statement is False.

4.  $\frac{29}{35}<\frac{20}{30}$

Now On solving we get;

$\frac{29}{35}= 0.82$

$\frac{20}{30}= 0.66$

So we can see that 0.82 > 0.66

Hence The given statement is False.
