• 4) 8/40

$\huge\bold{Answer:-}$

• 15/8

$\huge\bold{Explanation:-}$

hey mate! know about why option b was selected as the answer⤵

• So as we know that an improper fraction is a fraction with greater numerator and smaller denominator.

Now we compare then only the fraction 15/8 has such concept.

A fraction is represented in form of p/q where p is the numerator and q is the denominator.

• And 15 is greater than 8 hence numerator is greater so it is improper.

In other:-

• (a)6<8

• (c)8<32

• (d)8<40

• hope it helped!
