Comparison of
Fractions (Cross
Products)
Introduction
Oto's tablet and cell phone are
running out of battery, but they only
have one cable to charge both
devices. Oto wants to charge the one
with the least battery first. The tablet
indicates that it has 2/5 of battery,
and the mobile phone 3/7. But since
these fractions do not have the
same denominator, he does not
know which of the two has less
2

7
Represents the fraction
To represent two fifths, we will have to divide
the rectangle into 5 parts and keep 2

To represent three sevenths, we will have to
divide the rectangle into 7 parts and keep 3

7
Represents the fraction
Very good!

7
Explanation
Oto still doesn't know which is the smallest, but he can copy the divisions of the fraction on
the right into the one on the left
Explanation
He can also copy the divisions of the fraction on the left to the fraction on the right
Explanation
Let's take a closer look
Explanation
Dividing the rectangle on the left
in the same way the rectangle on
the right was divided, for each of
the colored parts we have 7 parts.
How many colored parts do we
have in the rectangle?
2
5
=
2x7
5x7
?
?
Explanation
Indeed! We have 14 colored
parts since 7 +7 is 14 and 2 times
7 as well. And how many parts are
there in the square?
2
5
=
2x7
5x7
14
?
Explanation
Correct! There are 35 parts since
5 times 7 is 35 2
5
=
2x7
5x7
14
35
Explanation
In this square, instead of having it
divided into 7 parts, we have it
divided into 7 by 5 parts. How
many colored parts do we have?
3
7
=
3x5
7x5
?
?
Explanation
That is! We have 15 colored
parts since 3 times 5 is 15. So,
how many parts are there in the
square?
3
7
=
3x5
7x5
15

Explanation
Indeed! There are 35 parts since
7 times 5 is 35 3

Activity 1
What has happened?
The two complete figures have been colored
The figures are divided into the same number of parts
The figures have been transformed into triangles
Activity 1
Very good! They are divided into 35 parts each
The two complete figures have been colored
The figures are divided into the same number of parts
The figures have been transformed into triangles
Activity 2
Which of the two fractions is the smallest?

Explanation
To compare two fractions with different denominators, we
can reduce the denominators of both fractions to a
common one. We multiply the numerator and denominator
of each fraction by the denominator of the other. In this
way, both fractions have the same denominator. Therefore
now we only look at the new numerators. The fraction that has
the smallest numerator is the smallest fraction

Activity 3
Do we have to continue calculating to find out which of the two fractions is smaller?
Yes No
Activity 3
Indeed!
Yes No
Knowing the numerators of the equivalent fractions, we do not
need more data
Which is smaller?
Which of the two numerators is smaller?

Which is smaller?
Correct! The fraction 72 is smaller. Now, compare the initial fractions

Explanation
Comparing two fractions with different denominators is very easy since we only have
to multiply the numerator of each fraction by the denominator of the other and
compare the resulting quantities. This method is called the cross product
method

The tablet indicates that it has 2/5 of battery, and the mobile phone 3/7. But since these fractions do not have the same denominator, he does not know which of the two has less 2 5 3 7
  • 3. Represents the fraction To represent two fifths, we will have to divide the rectangle into 5 parts and keep 2 2 5
  • 5. Represents the fraction To represent three sevenths, we will have to divide the rectangle into 7 parts and keep 3 3 7
  • 7. Explanation Oto still doesn't know which is the smallest, but he can copy the divisions of the fraction on the right into the one on the left
  • 8. Explanation He can also copy the divisions of the fraction on the left to the fraction on the right
  • 10. Explanation Dividing the rectangle on the left in the same way the rectangle on the right was divided, for each of the colored parts we have 7 parts. How many colored parts do we have in the rectangle? 2 5 = 2x7 5x7 ? ?
  • 11. Explanation Indeed! We have 14 colored parts since 7 +7 is 14 and 2 times 7 as well. And how many parts are there in the square? 2 5 = 2x7 5x7 14 ?
  • 12. Explanation Correct! There are 35 parts since 5 times 7 is 35 2 5 = 2x7 5x7 14 35
  • 13. Explanation In this square, instead of having it divided into 7 parts, we have it divided into 7 by 5 parts. How many colored parts do we have? 3 7 = 3x5 7x5 ? ?
  • 14. Explanation That is! We have 15 colored parts since 3 times 5 is 15. So, how many parts are there in the square? 3 7 = 3x5 7x5 15 ?
  • 15. Explanation Indeed! There are 35 parts since 7 times 5 is 35 3 7 = 3x5 7x5 15 35
  • 16. Activity 1 What has happened? The two complete figures have been colored The figures are divided into the same number of parts The figures have been transformed into triangles
  • 17. Activity 1 Very good! They are divided into 35 parts each The two complete figures have been colored The figures are divided into the same number of parts The figures have been transformed into triangles
  • 18. Activity 2 Which of the two fractions is the smallest? 14 35 15 35
  • 20. Explanation To compare two fractions with different denominators, we can reduce the denominators of both fractions to a common one. We multiply the numerator and denominator of each fraction by the denominator of the other. In this way, both fractions have the same denominator. Therefore now we only look at the new numerators. The fraction that has the smallest numerator is the smallest fraction
  • 21. Explanation To compare two fractions with different denominators, we can reduce the denominators of both fractions to a common one. We multiply the numerator and denominator of each fraction by the denominator of the other 2 5 2 5 7 7 x x 3 7 3 7 5 5 x x
  • 22. Explanation In this way, both fractions have the same denominator. Therefore now we only look at the new numerators. The fraction that has the smallest numerator is the smallest fraction 15 35 14 35 < 2 5 3 7
  • 23. Example Which of the two fractions is the largest? Multiply the numerator of the first by the denominator of the second 8 11 7 9 ? ? = x
  • 24. Example Perfect! The first numerator is 72 8 11 7 9 72 ? = x
  • 25. Example Now multiply the numerator of the second by the denominator of the first 8 11 7 9 72 ? x =
  • 26. Example That is! The second numerator is 77 8 11 7 9 72 77 x =
  • 27. Activity 3 Do we have to continue calculating to find out which of the two fractions is smaller? Yes No
  • 28. Activity 3 Indeed! Yes No Knowing the numerators of the equivalent fractions, we do not need more data
  • 29. Which is smaller? Which of the two numerators is smaller? 72 ? 77 ? ?
  • 30. Which is smaller? Correct! The fraction 72 is smaller. Now, compare the initial fractions 72 ? 77 ? < 8 11 7 9 ?
  • 31. Compare fractions Indeed! Since they are equivalent 72 ? 77 ? < 8 11 7 9 <
  • 32. Explanation Comparing two fractions with different denominators is very easy since we only have to multiply the numerator of each fraction by the denominator of the other and compare the resulting quantities. This method is called the cross product method 72 77 < 8 11 7 9 <
  • 33. Cross products Multiply the terms crosswise to compare the fractions 4 8 6 12
  • 34. Cross products Multiply the terms crosswise to compare the fractions 4 8 6 12 ? ? =
  • 35. Cross products Multiply the terms crosswise to compare the fractions 4 8 6 12 48 48 =
  • 36. Cross products Compare these two fractions ? 4 8 6 12
  • 37. Cross products Very good! They are equal = 4 8 6 12
