Q193
ArithmeticNumber System, LCM/HCF & Divisibility
Which of the following fractions is greater than $\frac{3}{4}$ and less than $\frac{5}{6}$?
  1. a.$\frac{2}{3}$
  2. b.$\frac{1}{2}$
  3. c.$\frac{4}{5}$
  4. d.$\frac{9}{10}$

Answer: (C) $\frac{4}{5}$

$\frac{3}{4} = 0.75$, $\frac{5}{6} \approx 0.833$. Checking the options: $\frac{2}{3} \approx 0.667$ (less than 0.75, ✗), $\frac{1}{2} = 0.50$ (✗), $\frac{4}{5} = 0.80$ (between 0.75 and 0.833, ✓), $\frac{9}{10} = 0.90$ (greater than 0.833, ✗). Only $\frac{4}{5}$ lies in the required range.
