J Mogzz answered question 12/5/2007 How To Determine If A Fraction Is Greater Or Less Than Another Fraction? Convert them to a decimal by division and whichever is bigger, that is the greater one. 1/3 is .333 while 1/4 is .25 and 2/7 is.2857 so 1/3 is the greatest, 2/7 is next and 1/4 is the smallest!
