Hint

What equivalent fractions can you think of that don’t involve double digit numbers?
How can you be sure you’re writing a “small” fraction vs a “big” fraction?

Answer

The top equation has the following possible solutions:
1/2=3/6
1/2=4/8
4/8=3/6
1/3=2/6
1/4=2/8
2/3=6/9

Following from there, there are too many possible solutions to list. For example, using the leftover numbers to form an improper fraction and a proper fraction will always work for the second equation.

Here are two example solutions:
2/3=6/9 and 7/8>4/5

1/4=2/8 and 5/6>7/9
