which is greater 0.7 or 7/9?

Answer 1

I’ll tell you what. Send me 7/9 of $10 000 and I’ll send you 0.7 of it back.

Answer 2

0.7 = 7/10  

7/10 < 7/9

because

7*9 < 7 *10

Answer 3

note that 7/9 = 0.777777

so 7/9 is greater than 0.7

Answer 4

well its not 0,7 ..

Answer 5

Rewrite 0.7 as a common fraction

7/10

The larger the number in the denominator the smaller the fraction

Think of a pizza

You cut it into 9 slices.  You cut another pizza into 10 slices.  Which pizza has the bigger slices? 

Take another 2 pizzas.  Cut one into 4 slices and the other into 3 slices.  Which pizza has the bigger slices?  Compare the numbers in the denominators. 

Another way of thinking about size Rewrite both numbers as common fractions. 

0.7 = 7/10, 7/9

Find the common denominator

7/10 X 9/9 = 63/90

7/9 X 10/10 = 70/90 

Which fraction is closer to 90/90? 

Answer 6

0.7 = 7/10

If you had 7 pizzas and you divided then among 9 friends you'd get a bigger share than if you divided them among 10 friends.

Stated another way, if the numerators are the same, the larger the denominator the smaller the fraction (and vice versa).

7/9 > 7/10 (0.7)

Answer 7

Convert  to decimals. 

0.7 

& 

7/9 = 0.7777.....

So 7/9 > 0.7 by 0.07777.....

Answer 8

The 0.7 is 7/10, and you are comparing it to 7/9.

Keeping in mind that 1/2 > 1/3 > 1/4 > 1/5 etc.,

you can see that 7/9 = 7 x 1/9 > 7 x 1/10 = 7/10.

So 7/9 is greater.

Answer 9

7/9 or 0.777777.... etc is greater than 0.7 

Answer 10

you have a calculator...

7/9 = 0.777

which is greater than 0.70

alternate:

compare 7/10 to 7/9

latter has smaller denominator, therefore fraction is larger.
