To compare two fractions with different denominators, cross-multiply the numerators and denominators: multiply the numerator of the first fraction by the denominator of the second, and vice versa. The fraction with the larger product is the larger fraction. For example, to compare 7/12 and 5/8: 7 × 8 = 56 and 5 × 12 = 60; since 60 > 56, 5/8 is greater than 7/12.

Most students get this wrong. Which is larger, 7/12 or 5/8? Cross multiply. 7 * 8 is 56. 5 * 12 is 60. Since 60 is bigger, 5/8 is greater than 7/12. Did you get it right?
