Answer: Option A
:

Each part: 2 Marks
(i) Find the LCM of denominators, i.e. the LCM of 3, 2, 9 and 4 = 36.


Now make the denominators common to the above fraction.


So, 4×123×12 = 48363×182×18 = 54367×49×4 = 28365×94×9 = 4536;


Now arrange the fractions according to their numerator, fraction having large magnitude of numerator will be of greater magnitude. 


So, correct sequence is 2836453648365436.
79<54<43<32
(ii)  Find the LCM of denominators, i.e. the LCM of 5, 7, 2 and 20 = 140.


Now make the denominators common to the above fraction.


So, 8×285×28 = 224140
12×207×20 = 240140
9×702×70 = 630140
23×720×7 = 161140;


Now arrange the fractions according to their numerator, fraction having large magnitude of numerator will be of greater magnitude. 


So, correct sequence is 161140224140240140630140.
2320<85<127<92
