1. \(\dfrac{6}{7}\)
2. \(\dfrac{7}{14}\)
3. \(\dfrac{4}{5}\)
4. \(\dfrac{9}{10}\)

Answer 1

Correct Answer - Option 2 : \(\dfrac{7}{14}\)

Calculation:

The value of 3/4 and 5/4 = 0.75 and 1.25

By option 1:

⇒ 6/7 = 0.857

The value lies between 0.75 and 1.25

By option 2:

⇒ 7/14= 0.5

The value not lies between 0.75 and 1.25

By option 3:

⇒ 4/5 = 0.8

The value lies between 0.75 and 1.25

By option 4:

⇒ 9/10 = 0.9

The value lies between 0.75 and 1.25

∴ 7/14 does not lies between 3/4 and 5/4
