(i) \(\frac{5}{7} < \frac{8}{7}\)

Denominators are same. 

Hence, the fraction having the greater numerator will be greater.

---

(ii) \(\frac{5}{8}>\frac{3}{8}\)

Denominators are same. 

Hence, the fraction having the greater numerator will be greater.

---

(iii) \(\frac{6}{13}>\frac{6}{17}\)

Numerators are same. 

Hence, the fraction having the lesser denominator will be greater.

---

(iv) \(\frac{5}{22}>\frac{3}{22}\)

Denominators are same. 

Hence, the fraction having the greater numerator will be greater.

---

(v) \(\frac{9}{47}<\frac{9}{42}\)
