The correct Answer is:
To solve the problem, we need to compare Quantity A and Quantity B given the condition \( x > 0 \). ### Step 1: Define Quantity A and Quantity B - Quantity A: \( \frac{2 + \frac{2}{3x}}{2} \) - Quantity B: \( \frac{3 + \frac{3}{2x}}{3} \) ### Step 2: Substitute \( x = 1 \) Since \( x > 0 \), we can choose \( x = 1 \) for simplicity. - Substitute \( x = 1 \) into Quantity A: \[ \text{Quantity A} = \frac{2 + \frac{2}{3 \cdot 1}}{2} = \frac{2 + \frac{2}{3}}{2} \] ### Step 3: Simplify Quantity A - Find a common denominator for the numerator: \[ 2 = \frac{6}{3} \quad \Rightarrow \quad \text{Quantity A} = \frac{\frac{6}{3} + \frac{2}{3}}{2} = \frac{\frac{8}{3}}{2} \] - Simplify: \[ \text{Quantity A} = \frac{8}{3} \cdot \frac{1}{2} = \frac{8}{6} = \frac{4}{3} \approx 1.3333\ldots \] ### Step 4: Substitute \( x = 1 \) into Quantity B - Substitute \( x = 1 \) into Quantity B: \[ \text{Quantity B} = \frac{3 + \frac{3}{2 \cdot 1}}{3} = \frac{3 + \frac{3}{2}}{3} \] ### Step 5: Simplify Quantity B - Find a common denominator for the numerator: \[ 3 = \frac{6}{2} \quad \Rightarrow \quad \text{Quantity B} = \frac{\frac{6}{2} + \frac{3}{2}}{3} = \frac{\frac{9}{2}}{3} \] - Simplify: \[ \text{Quantity B} = \frac{9}{2} \cdot \frac{1}{3} = \frac{9}{6} = 1.5 \] ### Step 6: Compare Quantity A and Quantity B - We have: - Quantity A = \( \frac{4}{3} \approx 1.3333\ldots \) - Quantity B = \( 1.5 \) - Since \( 1.5 > 1.3333\ldots \), we conclude that: \[ \text{Quantity B} > \text{Quantity A} \] ### Conclusion Thus, the correct relationship is that Quantity B is greater than Quantity A.
