Arrange the following fractions in increasing order:

A. 14/17
B. 11/13
C. 7/9
D. 16/19
Choose the correct answer from the options given below:

The correct option is C, A, D, B.

To arrange the fractions in increasing order, we can compare their values by converting each fraction into its decimal equivalent.

Let's calculate the decimal value for each of the given fractions:

For Fraction C:
$$\frac{7}{9}\approx 0.778$$

For Fraction A:
$$\frac{14}{17}\approx 0.824$$

For Fraction D:
$$\frac{16}{19}\approx 0.842$$

For Fraction B:
$$\frac{11}{13}��0.846$$

Now, comparing these decimal values, we see that:
0.778 < 0.824 < 0.842 < 0.846

This corresponds to the following order of the fractions:
$$\frac{7}{9}<\frac{14}{17}<\frac{16}{19}<\frac{11}{13}$$

Therefore, the fractions arranged in increasing order are C, A, D, B.
