X and Y are natural numbers other than 1, and Y is greater than X. Which of the following represents the largest number?1. XY2. X/Y3. Y/X4. (X + Y)/XY

Answer» Correct Answer - Option 1 : XY

Given :

X and Y are natural numbers other than 1, and Y is greater than X

Calculations :

1 < X < Y 

Let X be 2 and Y be 3         (X and Y are natural numbers)

Now put value in each option to get the values 

Option(1) ⇒ XY = 2 × 3 = 6 

Option(2) ⇒ X/Y = 2/3 

Option(3) ⇒ Y/X = 3/2 

Option(4) ⇒ (X + Y)XY = 5/6 

We can see that option 1 represents the largest value among all 

∴ Option1 will be the correct choice.
