Solution

The correct option is B 1.5
$\frac{1}{2} = \frac{1 \times 5}{2 \times 5} = \frac{5}{10} = 0.5$

$\frac{3}{2} = \frac{3 \times 5}{2 \times 5} = \frac{15}{10} = 1.5$

$\frac{1}{5} = \frac{1 \times 2}{5 \times 2} = \frac{2}{10} = 0.2$

$\frac{3}{5} = \frac{3 \times 2}{5 \times 2} = \frac{6}{10} = 0.6$

So, we can see that 1.5 is the largest among the given numbers.
