Which of the following is the greatest value?
A. 43÷55
B. 5/7
C. 0.729
D. 73%
we are asked to find the largest value from the options given. To solve this problem, we need to convert all the given values into fraction. Then find the least common denominator for all fractions, which we will use to multiply each fraction and make a comparison.
43÷
55=43/55
5/7
0.729=729/1000
73%=73/100
Now, we need to find the least common denominator of 55, 7, 1000, and 100, which is 77000. We multiply each fraction by 77000 as follows:
43/55*77000=60200
5/7*77000=55000
729/1000*77000=56133
73/100*77000=56210
From the calculated values, it can be noted that 43/55 is the greatest value among the given options.
Therefore, the Correct Answer is A.
