Reduce your fraction and you will quickly be able to tell.
After this, please put a subject in the subject line.
You need to find the common denominator for these two fractions.
13/17 = 195/255
12/15 = 204/255
There may be a smaller number but I suggest you convert both fractions to ??/255, then compare them. For example, 13/17 = 195/255.
It is easiest to compare fractions when you have a common denominator. Just go ahead and multiply your denominators together and whichever numerator is bigger is the larger number.
13 x 15 = 195 (numerator)
17 x 15 = 255 (denominator)
12 x 17 = 204 (numerator)
15 x 17 = 255 (denominator)
So, which is larger 195/255 or 204/255?
12/15
To compare the two fractions 13/17 and 12/15, you need to find a common denominator. The common denominator is the least common multiple (LCM) of the denominators, which in this case is 60.
Next, you need to convert both fractions to have the same denominator. For 13/17, multiply both numerator and denominator by 15 to get 195/255. For 12/15, multiply both numerator and denominator by 4 to get 48/60.
Now that both fractions have the same denominator, you can compare their numerators. Since 195 is greater than 48, the fraction 13/17 is larger than 12/15.
Therefore, 13/17 is bigger than 12/15.
