MCQ
Mark $(\checkmark)$ against the correct answer in the following $\frac{3}{8}$ and $\frac{5}{12}$ on comparison give:
  • A
    $\frac{3}{8}>\frac{5}{12}$
  • $\frac{3}{8}<\frac{5}{12}$
  • C
    $\frac{3}{8}=\frac{5}{12}$
  • D
    None of these.

Answer

Correct option: B.
$\frac{3}{8}<\frac{5}{12}$
Considering $\frac{3}{8}$and $\frac{5}{12}$
On cross multiplying, we get:
$3 \times 12 = 36$ and $8 \times 5 = 40$
Clearly, $36 < 40$
$\therefore\frac{3}{8}<\frac{5}{12}$
