Solution Steps

Reduce the fraction \frac{2}{4} to lowest terms by extracting and canceling out 2.

$$\frac{1}{2}=\frac{3}{5}\text{ and }\frac{3}{5}=\frac{1}{7}$$

Least common multiple of 2 and 5 is 10. Convert \frac{1}{2} and \frac{3}{5} to fractions with denominator 10.

$$\frac{5}{10}=\frac{6}{10}\text{ and }\frac{3}{5}=\frac{1}{7}$$

Compare \frac{5}{10} and \frac{6}{10}.

$$\text{false}\text{ and }\frac{3}{5}=\frac{1}{7}$$

Least common multiple of 5 and 7 is 35. Convert \frac{3}{5} and \frac{1}{7} to fractions with denominator 35.

$$\text{false}\text{ and }\frac{21}{35}=\frac{5}{35}$$

Compare \frac{21}{35} and \frac{5}{35}.

$$\text{false}\text{ and }\text{false}$$

The conjunction of \text{false} and \text{false} is \text{false}.
