Which of the following is the greatest value?
A. 34÷96
B. 3/8
C. 0.372
D. 37%
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.
34÷96=
3/8=3/8
0.372=372/1000
37%=37/100
Now, we need to find the least common denominator of 48, 8, 1000, and 100, which is 6000. We multiply each fraction by 6000 as follows:
17/48*6000=2125
3/8*6000=2250
372/1000*6000=2232
37/100*6000=2220
From the above calculations, arranging the fraction from the largest to the smallest in order is: 3/8, 372/1000,37/100, and 17/48. Thus, the greatest value is 3/8.
Therefore, the Correct Answer is B.
