Answer:

2 5/9 is less than 21/3;  2 5/9 < 21/3

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1:  Convert 2 5/9 into an improper fraction

2 5/9 = 2 * 9/9 + 5/9 = 18/9 + 5/9 = 23/9

Step 2:  Convert 21/3 so the denominator is 9

21*3 / 3*3 = 63/9

Step 3:  Compare

23/9 < 63/9

Answer:  2 5/9 is less than 21/3;  2 5/9 < 21/3

Answer:

21/3 > 2 5/9

Step-by-step explanation:

2 × 9 = 18

18 + 5 = 23 which makes the fraction 23/9

23/9 × 3 = 69/27

21/3 × 9 = 189/27

189/27 > 69/27 or 21/3 > 2 5/9

Or Simpler:

21/3 = 7

7 > 2 5/9

So, 21/3 > 2 5/9
