Which fraction is the largest?

5/3, 8/9, 3/2, 7/4

Change all so the denominators are 36. Then you'll be able to easily tell.

Which is the largest? 1/5,4/15,2/3,7/30

To determine which fraction is the largest, you can compare their values. One way to do this is by finding a common denominator for all the fractions. Here's how you can do it step by step:

1. Start by finding the least common multiple (LCM) of the denominators 3, 9, 2, and 4. The LCM of these numbers is 36.

2. Convert each fraction to have a denominator of 36 by multiplying both the numerator and denominator by the appropriate factors. We get:
- 5/3 becomes (5/3) * (12/12) = 60/36
- 8/9 becomes (8/9) * (4/4) = 32/36
- 3/2 becomes (3/2) * (18/18) = 54/36
- 7/4 remains the same as 7/4.

Now that all the fractions have a common denominator of 36, we can directly compare their numerators to determine the largest fraction.

The fractions in order from smallest to largest are:
- 32/36
- 54/36
- 7/4
- 60/36

Therefore, the largest fraction among 5/3, 8/9, 3/2, and 7/4 is 60/36.
