Which is greater three fourths or eleven sixteen

★ Which is greater?

   OR  

The first thing you need to do is check if the denominators are the same. The denominator is the number on the bottom. The denominators are:

and

Since they are not the same, change them so that they have a common denominators. To do that, list the first few multiples of both numbers to find the GCM.

The 2 common multiples of 4 and 16 are:

and

Since 16 is less than 32, the new denominator of the 2 fractions should be 16. Change the fractions so that they have a denominator of 16.

Which is greater?

  OR  

Since 12 is greater than 11, is greater.

ANSWER:    

answer: option a.

step-by-step explanation:

you know that the quadrilateral opqr ( a four sided figure) is inscribed in circle. this means that all its vertices are on the circle.

then, by definition, the opposite angles of the quadrilateral are supplementary, this means that the sum of their measures is 180 degrees.

you can observe in the figure that the angles ∠opq   and the angle ∠orq   are opposite, therefore:

then, can be used to d to calculate the measure of ∠opq
