Is 1/1 greater than 6/1?

To compare two fractions, such as 1/1 and 6/1, there are two main common methods: the first one involves finding a common denominator, and the other one is to convert the fractions directly into decimal values.

1) Using the same denominator

Given that 1/1 and 6/1 share the same common denominator (1), the comparison is straightforward: we just have to check which numerator is the largest.

Since 1 is smaller than 1, we can conclude that 1/1 is less than 6/1.

2) Converting to decimal

We can also simply convert the fractions into decimal values:

  1. 1 divided by 1 is equal to 1
  2. 6 divided by 1 is equal to 6

Since 1 is smaller than 6, it means that 1/1 is less than 6/1.
