Answer:

a) -8/3 < 7/2

b) -5/11 > -6/11

Step-by-step explanation:

For a - Each negative number is less than a positive number.

For b- when we compare 5/11 and 6/11, it is 5/11= 0.4545... , 6/11=0.5454... The first number after (0.-) is 4 for 5/11, and 5 for 6/11. 4<5, it means that 5/11 < 6/11 , but in question they are negative, and in that situation the result will be the opposite. -5/11>-6/11
