Answer 1

The correct option is A $\frac{99}{100}$

The fraction whose numerator is less than the denominator is called a proper fraction.

$\frac{99}{100}:\text{Numerator < Denominator}$
Hence, it is a Proper Fraction.

$\frac{100}{99}:\text{Numerator > Denominator}$
Hence, it is not a Proper Fraction.

$\frac{101}{100}:\text{Numerator > Denominator}$
Hence, it is not a Proper Fraction.

$\frac{102}{100}:\text{Numerator > Denominator}$
Hence, it is not a Proper Fraction.

Option (a) is correct.
