\(\frac{(\frac{a}{b})}{c}\)

In the expression above, a, b, and c are different numbers and each is one of the numbers 2, 3, or 5. What is the least possible value of the expression?

(A) 1/30
(B) 2/15
(C) 1/6
(D) 3/10
(E) 5/6

The higher the denominator , the lower the value of the fraction....

Plug in c = 5 , b = 3 and a = 2 and check (other options as well)....

Answer must be (B)

(a/b)/c
which
= (a/b) * (1/c)
= a/(b*c)

thus b and c are denominator

hence the lowest possible value should have highest denominator, which is 3*5 and leaves numerator 2
