Correct Answer - Option 2 : \(\frac{7}{6}\)

Calculation:

Let the two fractions be x and y.

⇒ xy = \(\frac{14}{15}\) and \(\frac{x}{y}=\frac{35}{24}\)

On multiplying both the conditions, we get

\(⇒ xy \times \frac{x}{y}=\frac{14}{15}\times \frac{35}{24}\)

⇒ x2 = 49/36

⇒ x = 7/6

∴ y = (14/15) ÷ (7/6)

⇒ y = 4/5

Clearly, from x and y, x is greater. 

Hence, 7/6 is greater fraction.
