6/7*5/6 cross multiplication.
36, 35 (6/7 = 36, 5/6 = 35).
6/7 > 5/6.
36, 35 (6/7 = 36, 5/6 = 35).
6/7 > 5/6.

Easy trick for solving this type of question 1st take difference of numerator and denominator and arrange them according to there acceding and descending order and respective fraction is answer of question if deference is common between 2 fraction then select greater base between them is higher value fraction.

@Umesh.
Your trick is not applicable for all types of questions.
It will work only when difference between the given numerator is equal.

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.

First cross multiply each term with adjacent next term. So we get a number series as follows.
Eg. take option D.
6*6 = 36
7*5 = 35
5*5 = 25
6*4 = 24
4*7 = 28
5*3 = 15
2*3 = 6
1*5 = 5
From this series we clear that it is in descending order.

6*6 = 36

2*3 = 6
1*5 = 5
