Question 127

Which of the following set of fractions is in ascending order ?

Solution

Decimal equivalent of :

$$\frac{13}{15} = 0.87$$

$$\frac{11}{13} = 0.85$$

$$\frac{7}{8} = 0.875$$

$$\frac{8}{9} = 0.89$$

Clearly, 0.85 < 0.87 < 0.875 < 0.89

=> $$\frac{11}{13} < \frac{13}{15} < \frac{7}{8} < \frac{8}{9}$$
