Answer:

Explanation:

It's not A since that means 1 3/4 or 7/4. That isn't a possible answer since 7/4 is greater than 1.

B: not the answer. You'll make 72000 almost 1000 times bigger if you use B.

C: same reason as B. Anything over 1 will make 72033 larger, not smaller

E: 12/8 > 1. It can't work.

The answer is d . Try it on your calculator. Anything between 0 and 1 make make any number smaller. (include zero, don't include 1).
