MCQ
Which of the following is correct$?$
  • A
    $\frac{2}{3}<\frac{3}{5}<\frac{11}{5}$
  • $\frac{3}{5}<\frac{2}{3}<\frac{11}{15}$
  • C
    $\frac{11}{15}<\frac{3}{5}<\frac{2}{3}$
  • D
    $\frac{3}{5}<\frac{11}{15}<\frac{2}{3}$

Answer

Correct option: B.
$\frac{3}{5}<\frac{2}{3}<\frac{11}{15}$
Consider the fractions $\frac{2}{3},\frac{3}{5}$ and $\frac{11}{15}$
$LCM$ of $3, 5$ and $15 = 15$
Firstly, convert the fractions into equivalent fractions with denominator $15$
$\Rightarrow\frac{2}{3}=\frac{2\times5}{3\times5}=\frac{10}{15}$
$\Rightarrow\frac{3}{5}=\frac{3\times3}{5\times3}=\frac{9}{15}$
Now,
$9<10<11$
$\therefore\ \frac{9}{15}<\frac{10}{15}<\frac{11}{15}$
$\frac{3}{5}<\frac{2}{3}<\frac{11}{15}$
