Answer:

-1 3/7 is larger

Step-by-step explanation:

To figure out which is larger, convert each of these mixed numbers to decimals.

-1 3/7 = -1.42857142857

-1 1/2 = -1.5

Negative numbers are larger the closer they are to 0. So, -1 is larger than -2, since -1 is closer to 0.

Since -1.5 < -1.43, -1 3/7 is larger than -1 1/2 since it is closer to 0.
