Operations on Rational Numbers

Comparing rational numbers

Comparing rational numbers

  • To compare two fractions we make the denominators equal, then compare the numerators.
  • For negative numbers, the greater number is the one closer to zero.
  • For example, −2/3 is greater than −3/4, because −8/12 is greater than −9/12.
