Answer: Option 'b' is correct.

Explanation:

Since we have given that


(11)/(20),(1)/(2),0.51

Now, we have to arrange the set of numbers from least to greatest.

So, for this we have to make the denominator same ,


(11* 5)/(20* 5)=(55)/(100)

Similarly,


(1* 50)/(2* 50)=(50)/(100)

Similarly,


(51)/(100)

Numbers In increasing order :


(50)/(100),(51)/(100),(55)/(100)\\\\(1)/(2),0.51,(11)/(20)

Hence, Option 'b' is correct.

11/20 = 55/100 = 0.55
1/2 = 50/100 = 0.50
0.51

1/2. 11/20, 0.51 (least to greatest)

C is your answer

hope this helps
