For this case we have the following numbers:
[tex]\frac {11} {18} = 0.611111111111\\\frac {5} {9} = 0,555555555556[/tex]
Note that [tex]\frac {11} {18}[/tex]is greater than[tex]\frac {5} {9},[/tex] so the inequality sign must be placed with the opening towards [tex]\frac {11} {18}[/tex].
Answer:
[tex]\frac {11} {18}> \frac {5} {9}[/tex]
