Fractions compared with the same denominator

To compare two fractions with the same denominator, we compare numerators, the largest fraction is the one with the largest numerator.

To compare two fractions with the same denominator such as the following : `3/4` et `7/4`, enter compare_fractions(3/4;7/4) .

Fractions comparison

To compare fractions, when the numerators are different and denominators are also different, the calculator reduces fractions to the same denominator then comparing numerators.

To compare 2 fractions with different numerators and different denominators such as those that follow : `19/11` et `13/7`, enter compare_fractions(19/11;13/7) .
