Answer: To Find Which One Is Greater We should Equal All Denominator First..
=So, LCM Of 5,3,3,7 Is 105
=17/5= 5x21= 105 As compare to other.. 17/5= 17x21= 1,491,
=16/3= 3x35= 105 As compare to other.. 16/3= 16x35= 560
=22/3= 3x35= 105 As compare to other.. 22/3= 22x35= 770
= 17/7=7x15= 105 As compare to other.. 17/7= 17x15= 255
So.. 17/5= 1,491/105
=16/3= 560/105
=22/3= 770/105
=17/7= 255/105
So, Here Clearly Visble That 17/5 Is Greater

Answer:
first make them like fractions by taking LCM of denominators
i.e=5,3,7
=105
now multiply numerator from that which we multiply with denominator do we get the number of our LCM i.e is 105
=17/5=357/105
16/3=560/105
22/3=770/105
17/7=255/105
now you can solve this question in two ways
first way
you can make them in ascending order
255/105<357/105<560/105<770/105
17/7<17/5<16/3<22/3
so greatest is 22/3
second way
if there are four numbers then make group of 1 and 2 number and 3 and 4 number
=357/105. < 560/105
17/5. < 16/3
770/105. > 255/105
22/3. > 17/7
now compare both groups greater number
i.e is
560/105. < 770/105
16/3. < 22/3
now you can see from both ways answer is same
first way way answer is 22/3
second way answer is 22/3
hence the answer is 22/3
