Which of the following fractions is greater than $$\frac{{3}}{{4}}$$ and less than $$\frac{{5}}{{6}}$$ ?
Answer & Solution
Correct Answer:
Option
C
$$\eqalign{
& \frac{3}{4} = 0.75,{\kern 1pt} \cr
& \frac{5}{6} = 0.833,{\kern 1pt} \cr
& \frac{1}{2} = 0.5, \cr
& \frac{2}{3} = 0.66, \cr
& {\kern 1pt} \frac{4}{5} = 0.8, \cr
& \frac{9}{{10}} = 0.9 \cr} $$
Clearly, 0.8 lies between 0.75 and 0.833
$$\therefore \frac{4}{5}{\text{lies between}}\frac{3}{4}{\text{and}}\frac{5}{6}$$
Clearly, 0.8 lies between 0.75 and 0.833
$$\therefore \frac{4}{5}{\text{lies between}}\frac{3}{4}{\text{and}}\frac{5}{6}$$
