Solution
(1)
Sol: Option d
Clearly 3/5=0.6, 4/7 = 0.571 , 8/9 = 0.88, 9/11= 0.818
Now, 0.88 > 0.818 > 0.6 > 0.571
(2)
Sol: Option c
[0.000625 of 23/5]=[625/100000 * 23/5]=23/800

Sol: Option (a)
4A +7/B + 2C +5/D +6E = 47.2506
4A +7/B + 2/C +5/D +6E = 40+7+0.2+0.05+0.0006
Comparing the terms on both sides, we get
4A=40, 7/B =7, 2C = 0.2, 5/D=0.05, 6E=0.0006
or
a=10, B=1, C=0.1, D = 100, E = 0.0001
5A+3B+6C+D+3E
=(5810)+(3*1)+(6*0.1)+100+(3*0.0001)
=50+3+0.6+100+0.0003=153.6003
(5)
Sol: Option B
Let the number be x. Then,
4/15 of 5/7 of x - 4/9 of 2/5 of x = 8
4/21x-8/45x=8
[4/21-8/45]x=8
[60-56/315]x=8
4/315x=8
x=[8*315/4]=630
1/2 x = 315
