Lesson Steps

Step Type Explanation Answer

1

Problem

Identify the small fraction number given below
\$33/27, 25/14, 44/29\$

2

Step

Given fraction numbers are

\$33/27, 25/14, 44/29\$

3

Step

First, we can convert fractions to have a common denominator.

4

Step

The least common multiple of 27,14 and 29 is

13506

5

Step

For \$ 33/27\$ multiply both the numerator and denominator by 502

\$ (33 * 502) / (27 * 502) = 16566 / 13506 \$

6

Step

For \$25/14 \$ multiply both the numerator and denominator by 963

\$ (25 * 963) / (14 * 963) = 24075 / 13506 \$

7

Step

For \$ 44/29 \$ multiply both the numerator and denominator by 466

\$ (44 * 466) / (29 * 466) = 20504 / 13506 \$

8

Step

The fractions have the same denominator, so you can simply compare the numerators. The fraction with the larger numerator is the smaller fraction.

9

Step

Among the fractions \$16566/13506, 24075/13506\$, and \$20504/13506\$, \$16566/13506\$ has the smallest numerator, making it the smallest fraction.

10

Step

You can also convert them to decimals \$ 16566/13506 \$ is approximately

1.22656597

11

Step

And also \$ 24075/13506 \$ is approximately

1.84397977

12

Step

And also \$ 20504/13506 \$ is approximately

1.51814008

13

Step

So, the smallest fraction among \$33/27, 25/14\$, and \$44/29\$ is

\$ 16566/13506 \$

14

Step

Therefore, the smallest fraction number is

\$ 33/27 \$
