Compare the following:$8, \frac{14}{3}$
Given :
The given numbers are $8, \frac{14}{3}$.
To do :
We have to compare the given numbers.
Solution :
To compare two fractions convert them into like fractions.
$\frac{8}{1} = \frac{8\times 3}{1\times 3} = \frac{24}{3}$
Now,
$\frac{24}{3}$ and $\frac{14}{3}$ are like fractions.
The fraction with the larger numerator is the largest fraction.
$24>14$
This implies,
$\frac{24}{3} >\frac{14}{3}$
$\frac{8}{1} > \frac{14}{3}$
Therefore,
8 is greater than $\frac{14}{3}$.
