SSC GD 2023 PYQ — Question 57

The correct answer is option 4 i.e.  ${1{} \over 4}$<${4{} \over 9}$<${11{} \over 18}$<${5{} \over 8}$ 

Given that

The ascending order of the fraction ${5{} \over 8}$, ${4{} \over 9}$,${1 {} \over 4}$, ${11{} \over 18}$ 

The LCM of (8, 9, 4, 18) = 72

Now fractions are converted into numerical value = (5/8) × 72 = 45

4/9 × 72 = 32

1/4 × 72 = 18

11/18 × 72 = 44

Now, Arrange the numbers in ascending order 18 < 32 < 44 < 45

Hence, the fractions corresponding to these numbers in also in the same ascending order

 ${1{} \over 4}$<${4{} \over 9}$<${11{} \over 18}$<${5{} \over 8}$
