Question

Which of the following are in descending order of their value?

Options:

A . `5/9`,`7/11`, `8/15`, `11/17`

B . `5/9`,`8/15`, `8/17`, `7/11`

C . `11/17`,`7/11`, `8/15`, `5/9`

D . `11/17`,`7/11`, `5/9`, `8/15`

Answer: Option D

Converting each of the given fractions into decimal from we get :

`5/9` = 0.55, `7/11`=0.63. `8/15` = 0.533, `11/17`=0.647.

Clearly. 0.647 > 0.63 >0.55 >0.533.

so `11/17` > `7/11` > `5/9` > `8/15`
