If 5

OpenStudy (anonymous):

A 'I think'

OpenStudy (firejay5):

do you know why???

OpenStudy (anonymous):

well all the numbers are positive so you can divide. 5<a<7 7<b<14 just divide and you get 5/7<a/b<7/14=1/2

OpenStudy (firejay5):

thanks!

OpenStudy (anonymous):

almost right.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

there is the possibility of setting a/b = 5/14, which is not in the range given by A

OpenStudy (firejay5):

what's the answer then

OpenStudy (anonymous):

b

OpenStudy (anonymous):

nvm, its d

OpenStudy (firejay5):

ya sure

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yeah 5<a<7<b<14 smallest number we can get must be smallest a / largest b = 5/14

OpenStudy (anonymous):

largest number we can get must be largest a / smallest b = 7/7

OpenStudy (firejay5):

okay thank you
