Cross Multiply the denominator Of the first
fraction by the Numerator of the second
fraction Second, Cross multiply the Denominator
of the second fraction By the numerator of the
first fraction
Cross Multiply
-14 -15
-14 gt -15 So -2/5 gt -3/7

and compare digits from left to right until you
find the place where the digits are different.
11Additional Example 2A Comparing Decimals
Compare the decimals. Write lt or gt.
0.427
0.425
0.427
Line up the decimal points.
7
The tenths and hundredths are the same.
0.425
5
