Question

At a party, Marthus ate the least amount of pizza. Choose the option that represents the amount of pizza eaten by Marthus.

• A. $1\frac{7}{8}$
• B. $1\frac{8}{7}$
• C. $1\frac{6}{9}$
• D. $1\frac{4}{11}$

Answer 1

The correct option is D $1\frac{4}{11}$

To compare the fractions, first we have to convert them into improper fractions.
$1\frac{7}{8}=\frac{15}{8}1\frac{8}{7}=\frac{15}{7}1\frac{6}{9}=\frac{15}{9}1\frac{4}{11}=\frac{15}{11}$

We can see that the numerators of all the fractions are same. The fraction with the greatest denominator is the least, which is 1$\frac{4}{11}$.
