• D. $\frac{42}{66},\frac{48}{66}$

Answer 1

The correct option is A

$\frac{33}{44},\frac{32}{44}$

To convert $\frac{3}{4},\frac{8}{11}$ to like fractions, we have to make the denominator same for both.

LCM of 4 and 11 is 44 .
$\frac{3}{4}=\frac{3\times 11}{4\times 11}=\frac{33}{44}\frac{8}{11}=\frac{8\times 4}{11\times 4}=\frac{32}{44}$

$\therefore$ Like fractions are $\frac{33}{44},\frac{32}{44}$.
