Compare Fractions: Find the Missing Symbol Between 7/4 and 2/4

Let's solve the problem step-by-step:

Both fractions in the problem, $\frac{7}{4}$ and $\frac{2}{4}$, have the same denominator. This allows us to directly compare their numerators.

The numerators are 7 and 2, respectively. Therefore, we need to determine whether 7 is less than, greater than, or equal to 2.

Comparing 7 and 2:

• $7 > 2$

Since 7 is greater than 2, it follows that:

• $\frac{7}{4} > \frac{2}{4}$

The correct inequality symbol to fill in the blank is $>$.

Thus, the solution to the problem is $\frac{7}{4} > \frac{2}{4}$.

Therefore, the correct choice from the available options is choice 2: $>$.
