Answer» (4/5), (7/10), (11/15), (17/20) LCM of 5, 10, 15, 20 = 5 × 2 × 3 × 2 = 60 Now, let us change each of the given fraction into an equivalent fraction having 60 as the denominator. [(4/5) × (12/12)] = (48/60) [(7/10) × (6/6)] = (42/60) [(11/15) × (4/4)] = (44/60) [(17/20) × (3/3)] = (52/60) Clearly, (42/60) < (44/60) < (48/60) < (52/60) Hence, (7/10) < (11/15) < (4/5) < (17/20) Hence, the given fractions in ascending order are (7/10), (11/15), (4/5) , (17/20) |
