RRB NTPC 2019 CBT 1 Question Paper (8-Mar-2021) (Shift 2)
The correct answer is
$\frac{22}{25}$

The question asks to identify the largest fraction among the given options: $\frac{7}{9}, \frac{6}{7}, \frac{22}{25}, \text{ and } \frac{11}{13}$.

Comparing Fractions: Identifying the Largest Value

To find the largest fraction, we can convert each fraction into its decimal form. This allows for a direct comparison of their values.

Method: Decimal Conversion

Convert each fraction to a decimal:

  • Fraction $\frac{7}{9}$: $7 \div 9 = 0.777...$
  • Fraction $\frac{6}{7}$: $6 \div 7 \approx 0.85714...$
  • Fraction $\frac{22}{25}$: $22 \div 25 = 0.88$
  • Fraction $\frac{11}{13}$: $11 \div 13 \approx 0.84615...$

Decimal Comparison

Now, compare the decimal values obtained:

  • $0.777...$
  • $0.857...$
  • $0.88$
  • $0.846...$

Comparing these decimals, we can see that $0.88$ is the largest value.

Identifying the Largest Fraction

The decimal $0.88$ corresponds to the fraction $\frac{22}{25}$. Therefore, $\frac{22}{25}$ is the largest fraction among the given options.
