Next Unit Pre Test 3 Compare these fractions. Choose the sign that makes the statement true. $$ 2 \quad 2 $$ $$ -?- $$ $$ 7 \quad 9 $$ A. $$ < $$ B. $$ > $$ C. $$ = $$

UpStudy AI · Accepted Answer

1. Write the fractions:  
   $$
   \frac{2}{7} \quad \text{and} \quad \frac{2}{9}
   $$

2. The numerators are equal ($$2$$). Thus, to compare, we compare denominators.

3. The fraction with the smaller denominator is larger. Since:
   $$
   7 < 9,
   $$
   it follows that:
   $$
   \frac{2}{7} > \frac{2}{9}.
   $$

4. Therefore, the correct sign is:
   
   $$
   >
   $$
The correct sign is $$ > $$.
