Question 285522: If 200 ≤ a ≤ 400 and 600 ≤ b ≤ 1200 then the largest value of the quotient b/a is
a) 3/2 (B) 3 (C) 6 (D) 300 (E) 600
Answer by Greenfinch(383) (Show Source): You can put this solution on YOUR website!
The highest value of b/a is with highest b over lowest a
Highest b is 1200, lowest a is 200
1200/200 = 6
So (C) is right
