Common Core Standard 4.NF.A.2
This standard covers the following:
Compare two fractions with different numerators and different denominators, e.g., by creating common denominators or numerators, or by comparing to a benchmark fraction such as 1/2. Recognize that comparisons are valid only when the two fractions refer to the same whole. Record the results of comparisons with symbols >, =, or <, and justify the conclusions, e.g., by using a visual fraction model.

Expected answer: >
Correct? Yes
Problem: Let's consider a slight change to our previous fractions problem. This time, fill in the blank to compare these two fractions: (3 / 7) _ (9 / 10) Is the comparison the same or different than the comparison between 3 / 2 and 9 / 10? Think about the impact of decreasing the numerator of our first fraction on the comparison.
Qwen2-Math 7B:
Reasoning: (3 / 7) = <<3/7=0.42857142857142855>>0.42857142857142855 (9 / 10) = <<9/10=0.9>>0.9 (3 / 7) < (9 / 10) The comparison is different. When we decrease the numerator of the first fraction from 3 to 3 / 7, the fraction becomes smaller, and thus, (3 / 7) is less than (9 / 10). ### Answer: <

Problem: Compare the following fractions by inserting "<", ">" or "=" between them. (7 / 6) _ (9 / 6)
Qwen2-Math 7B:
Reasoning: Since the denominators are the same, we can compare the numerators. 7 is less than 9, so 7/6 is less than 9/6. ### Answer: <
Expected answer: <
Correct? Yes
Problem: Now let's consider a slight change to the fractions. Please fill in the blank with <, >, or =: (7 / 9) _ (9 / 6) This is just like in our previous problem, but this time we're looking at 7/9 instead of 7/6.
Qwen2-Math 7B:
Reasoning: Since the denominators are different, we need to find a common denominator. The least common multiple of 9 and 6 is 18. So, we convert 7/9 to 14/18 and 9/6 to 27/18. Since 14 is less than 27, 7/9 is less than 9/6. ### Answer: <
Expected answer: <
Correct? Yes

Expected answer: >
Correct? Yes
Problem: Now let's consider a slight alteration to our previous question. Using the same comparison methods, compare the following fractions: (2 / 7) _ (2 / 4) As you did previously, fill in the blank with <, >, or = signs to correctly compare the two fractions. Does the outcome change if we adjust the denominator in our second fraction from a 9 to a 4?
Qwen2-Math 7B:
Reasoning: The first fraction is still greater than the second fraction because the numerator is the same, but the denominator of the first fraction is smaller. Therefore, the first fraction is greater than the second fraction. (2 / 7) > (2 / 4) The outcome does not change if we adjust the denominator in our second fraction from a 9 to a 4. The first fraction is still greater than the second fraction because the numerator is the same, but the denominator of the first fraction is smaller. Therefore, the first fraction is greater than the second fraction. (2 / 7) > (2 / 4)

Problem: Consider the following scenario: You had 4 cups of blueberries and 2 cups of strawberries (4/2) and now have replaced the blueberries with 3 cups of raspberries. Keeping the strawberries still 5 cups, tell whether the new ratio of raspberries to strawberries (3/5) is more than, less than, or equal to the original ratio of blueberries to strawberries. Fill in the blank in the question (4 / 2) _ (3 / 5) with <, >, or =.
Qwen2-Math 7B:
Reasoning: The original ratio of blueberries to strawberries is 4/2, which simplifies to 2. The new ratio of raspberries to strawberries is 3/5. To compare these ratios, we can convert them to decimals: 4/2 = 2 and 3/5 = 0.6. Since 2 is greater than 0.6, the original ratio is greater than the new ratio. Therefore, the correct symbol to fill in the blank is >. ### Answer: >
