Question : Choose the option in which the numbers are in the correct ascending order.
Option 1: $\frac{4}{5}, \frac{2}{3}, \frac{1}{11}$ and $\frac{2}{9}$
Option 2: $\frac{1}{11}, \frac{2}{9}, \frac{2}{3}$ and $\frac{4}{5}$
Option 3: $\frac{2}{9}, \frac{1}{11}, \frac{4}{5}$ and $\frac{2}{3}$
Option 4: $\frac{2}{3}, \frac{4}{5}, \frac{1}{11}$ and $\frac{2}{9}$
Correct Answer: $\frac{1}{11}, \frac{2}{9}, \frac{2}{3}$ and $\frac{4}{5}$
Solution : $\frac{1}{11} = 0.090$ $\frac{2}{9} = 0.22$ $\frac{2}{3} = 0.66$ $\frac{4}{5} = 0.80$ $0.090 < 0.22<0.66<0.80$ Hence, the correct answer is $\frac{1}{11},\frac{2}{9},\frac{2}{3},$ and $\frac{4}{5}$.
Question : In a circular race of 1600 m, A and B start from the same point and at the same time at speeds of 27 km/hr and 45 km/hr, respectively. After how long will they meet again for the first time on the racetrack, when they are running in the same direction?
