Question

    Which of the following fractions is the largest?

    A 7/24 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    B 4/6 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    C 8/18 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    D None of these Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

    Solution

    ATQ, In order to compare, we must make the denominators equal. So, LCM of (12, 24, 18, and 6) = 72 So, (5/12) × (6/6) = (30/72) Similarly, (7/24) = (21/72) And (8/18) = (32/72) And (4/6) = (48/72) Among the numerators, 48 is the largest.

    Therefore, (4/6) is the largest fraction.
