Question
Arrange the following in descending order.
(i) 23,421,79
(ii) 45,67,13
[2 MARKS]
Answer: Option A
:
Each option: 1 Mark
Now, 79,23,421
The LCM of the denominators of the above fractions = 63
⇒7×79×7, 2×213×21, 4×321×3
⇒4963, 4263, 1263
Hence, arranging in descending order we have
4963>4263>1263
i.e., 79>23>421
(ii) The LCM of the denominators of the given fractions = 105
Making them like fractions. We have,
1×353×35, 4×215×21, 6×157×15
35105, 84105, 90105
⇒67>45>13
