Question: 146

3. Which is the largest fraction?

  • A.
  • B.
  • C.
  • D.

Correct Answer: C

Explanation:

The answer is C

Convert each fraction to a decimal or create common denominators for the fractions, so you can compare the numerators. Choice (C) is the largest.

Notice that the numerators in choices (A), (B), and (D) are less than half of their denominators, which means each fraction is something less than one-half. In choice (C), the numerator is greater than half of its denominator, which means that it is something greater than one-half.
