[2 marks]
2.
Calculate whether rac{7}{10} is greater than or less than rac{4}{5}. Show your working.
[3 marks]
3.
A designer is creating two window frames. Frame A has a glass pane of rac{2}{3} meters width, and Frame B has a pane of rac{5}{8} meters. Which frame has a larger glass pane? Show your reasoning.
[4 marks]
4.
Construct a rectangle on the grid with a length of rac{3}{5} units and a width of rac{4}{7} units. Calculate its area in fractional form.
[3 marks]
5.
Compare rac{9}{14} and rac{3}{6}. Which fraction is larger? Show your working.
[2 marks]
6.
