If the fractions \( \Large \frac{19}{21}, \frac{21}{25}, \frac{25}{29}, \frac{29}{31} \ and \ \frac{31}{37} \) are arranged in ascending order of their values, then which one will be the 2nd?

A) \( \Large \frac{19}{21} \)
B) \( \Large \frac{21}{25} \)
C) \( \Large \frac{25}{29} \)
D) \( \Large \frac{29}{31} \)

Correct Answer:


B) \( \Large \frac{21}{25} \)

Description for Correct answer:

\( \Large \frac{19}{21} = 0.904, \frac{21}{25} = 0.84, \frac{25}{29} = 0.86 \)

\( \Large \frac{29}{31} = 0.93, \frac{31}{37} = 0.837 \)

\( \Large 0.837 < 0.84 < 0.86 < 0.904 < 0.93 \)

\( Clearly, \ \frac{21}{25} \ will \ be \ on \ second \ number \)
