Well I am smart so ya :D this might not be the answers to your test like at all XD but I just want to give you some clarification about these symbols:

when it is (<) this means that the symbol to the right is greater than the symbol to the left

when it is (>) this means that the symbol to the left is greater than the symbol to the right

And when it is ( = ) this means that both sides are equal and not greater than one another.

Again just for CLARIFICATION the person here didn't state the question but if you do then I will be happy to assist you, and when I mean assist i mean to give you a long explanation then give you the answers XD

To compare a pair of fractions, you need to compare their sizes or magnitudes. There are a few different methods you can use to compare fractions:

1. Method 1: Using Cross Multiplication
- Multiply the numerator (top number) of the first fraction by the denominator (bottom number) of the second fraction.
- Multiply the numerator of the second fraction by the denominator of the first fraction.
- Compare the two products obtained. If the first product is greater, then the first fraction is greater than the second fraction. If the second product is greater, then the second fraction is greater. If the two products are equal, the fractions are equal.

2. Method 2: Converting to a Common Denominator
- Find a common denominator for both fractions.
- Convert both fractions to equivalent fractions with the common denominator.
- Compare the numerators (top numbers) of the equivalent fractions. If the numerator of the first fraction is greater, then the first fraction is greater than the second fraction. If the numerator of the second fraction is greater, then the second fraction is greater. If the numerators are equal, the fractions are equal.

3. Method 3: Converting to Decimal Form
- Divide the numerator (top number) by the denominator (bottom number) for both fractions to convert them to decimal form.
- Compare the resulting decimals. If the decimal representation of the first fraction is greater, then the first fraction is greater than the second fraction. If the decimal representation of the second fraction is greater, then the second fraction is greater. If the decimals are equal, the fractions are equal.

Once you choose a method that suits you, you can compare the pair of fractions by following the steps of the selected method.
