Observe the all options in numerators and denominators.
If numerators increases value increases. But they are asking for decreasing order.
So denominator decreases the value decreases.
So there is only one option 6, 5, 4, 3, 2, 1.
So option: D.

I did it by seeing just observe any numbers with same denominators like I supposed 7 denominator for option A I saw that 3/7 is coming before then 6/7 so option A is not in descending order, like as I tried B & C, lastly I got D which is correct for my consideration.

For the first three option take the 1st and last digit, then compare the two digit.
For option a), b)and c)
1/3=0.3333 and 6/7=0.8571, now we can see that 1st one is smaller then last one.
So they are not in descending order.
Hence answer is the rest means option D).

If differences between the numerator and denominator is very low it means it having the high value of that fraction. In this 1/3, 1/5, 6/7 only 6/7 having less difference so series starts from here.
