-5/16

Our choices:-

A.-3/8


B.-11/12


C.-1/4


D.-1/8

Let us get all of them with a LCD

-1*2 = -2
8*2 = 16

-2/16 is not bigger than -5/16

-11/12 is bigger than -5/16 because half of 16 is 8.

-1*4 = -4
4*4= 16

-4/16 is not bigger than -5/16

-1/8 is smaller than -5/16

Final answer: -11/12 is the only fraction bigger than -5/16
