Hi friend!!
First make sure that the denominators of all given numbers are same.
LCM of 3,5,11 and 17 is 2805
→ 2/3 = 2/3 × 935/935 = 1870/2805
→ 3/5 = 3/5 × 561/561 = 1683/2805
→ 8/11 = 8/11 × 255/255 = 2040/2805
→ 11/17 = 11/17 × 165/165 = 1815/2805
Write in ascending order,
1683/2805 < 1815/2805 < 1870/2805 < 2040/2805
3/5 < 11/17 < 2/3 < 8/11
Therefore, 8/11 is greatest among the given numbers.
Option is B) 8/11
Hope it helps
