Homework Help: organic chemistry

EAS reactivity. I am comparing two benzene rings. One has an NO2 group attached to it and the other has a C(=0)CH3 attached to it. I understand they are both deactivating groups so they are low in reactivity but how do I know which of the two is the least reactive?
