The fastest method of solving this prblm is converting each fraction into decimal.
Instead of finding LCM, it consumes lot of time.
And as terms if fraction are easy we can solve orally in few seconds.

First take the LCM of the denominators and the LCM is 210. Which is taken to common denominator do the numerators equal to 210 by multiplying the required numbers. By comparing we get the answers.

By taking the LCM of denominator ie 3, 5, 6, 7 in this way we get the right series of descending.

For the first 3 options, check the first two numbers.
1/3 = 0.3333 and 2/5 = 0.4 which is in ascending order.
Hence answer is Option(D).
1/3 = 0.3333 and 2/5 = 0.4 which is in ascending order.
Hence answer is Option(D).

Product of 2nd number denominator with 1st number numerator is more than pr of 1st number deno with 2nd number numo then 1st number is greater ,
Here in d option 36>35(6*6 > 7*5)
Here in d option 36>35(6*6 > 7*5)

Use LCM method to get same denominator and solve.

The fraction with highest denominator value will have smaller decimal value, and descending implies smaller value towards higher one so.

The fraction whose numerator after cross multiplication gives the greater value is greater.
Here take the 1st two 6/7 and 5/6
6*6>5*7.
From given options option D only satisfy this...So ans is D.
