You can put this solution on YOUR website!
m and n are whole numbers such that 49 < n < 101 and 19 < m < 51
we have to find the greatest value of (n+m)/n = 1+ m/n
We have to take maximum value for m and minimum value for n
Take m = 50 and n = 50
Then, the greatest value of (n+m)/n = (50+50)/50 = 100/50 = 2
