1 1/4 x 2 1/5 > 5/6 x 2 1/5

Answer 1

To solve this problem, we need to convert all the mixed numbers into improper fractions:

1 1/4 = 5/4
2 1/5 = 11/5

So the inequality becomes:

(5/4) x (11/5) > (5/6) x (11/5)

Simplifying both sides, we get:

55/20 > 55/30

Now we can compare the two sides of the inequality by finding a common denominator:

55/20 = 165/60
55/30 = 110/60

So the inequality becomes:

165/60 > 110/60

This is true, since 165/60 is greater than 110/60.

Therefore, the answer is:

1 1/4 x 2 1/5 > 5/6 x 2 1/5 is true.
