Answer: b:23/21
Step-by-step explanation:
To get the value of w that makes the expression equal a number greater than 15.3, we multiply 15.3 by the values given in the options. This will be:
a: 13/14
= 15.3 × (13/14)
= 14.2
b:23/21
= 15.3 × (23/21)
= 16.8
c:42/42
= 15.3 × (42/42)
= 15.3
d:100/101
= 15.3 × (100/101)
= 15.2
From the illustrations given from a-d, we can see that only option b with w given as 23/21 makes the expression greater than 15.3
