The correct Answer is:
To determine which of the given fractions lies between \( \frac{1}{5} \) and \( \frac{1}{4} \), we can follow these steps: ### Step 1: Convert \( \frac{1}{5} \) and \( \frac{1}{4} \) to decimal form. - \( \frac{1}{5} = 0.2 \) - \( \frac{1}{4} = 0.25 \) ### Step 2: List the given fractions. - A: \( \frac{7}{33} \) - B: \( \frac{4}{11} \) - C: \( \frac{13}{57} \) - D: \( \frac{7}{17} \) ### Step 3: Convert each fraction to decimal form. 1. **For A: \( \frac{7}{33} \)** \[ \frac{7}{33} \approx 0.2121 \quad (\text{approximately}) \] 2. **For B: \( \frac{4}{11} \)** \[ \frac{4}{11} \approx 0.3636 \quad (\text{approximately}) \] 3. **For C: \( \frac{13}{57} \)** \[ \frac{13}{57} \approx 0.2281 \quad (\text{approximately}) \] 4. **For D: \( \frac{7}{17} \)** \[ \frac{7}{17} \approx 0.4118 \quad (\text{approximately}) \] ### Step 4: Compare the decimal values with \( 0.2 \) and \( 0.25 \). - \( 0.2 < 0.2121 < 0.25 \) (A is between) - \( 0.2 < 0.3636 \) (B is not between) - \( 0.2 < 0.2281 < 0.25 \) (C is between) - \( 0.4118 > 0.25 \) (D is not between) ### Conclusion: The fractions that lie between \( \frac{1}{5} \) and \( \frac{1}{4} \) are: - A: \( \frac{7}{33} \) - C: \( \frac{13}{57} \) ### Final Answer: The correct options are A and C. ---
