Answer» $(\frac{3}{7} = 0.4284,\frac{4}{{11}} = 0.3636,\frac{5}{8} = 0.625)$ So smallest is $(\frac{4}{{11}})$ It can also be solved by making the denominators equal LCM of 7, 11 & 8 = 616 $(\frac{{264}}{{616}} = \frac{3}{7},\frac{{224}}{{616}} = \frac{4}{{11}},\frac{{385}}{{616}} = \frac{5}{8})$ When, based are equal, we can CLEARLY see. $(\frac{{224}}{{616}})$ is the smallest i.e. $(\frac{4}{{11}})$ |
