to find the answer we need to find LCM..(of denominators)(so that they are converted to like fractions)
So. LCM of 4,5,13,2 =260
Now for the first fraction : 16/5×__ / 52=__/260
===> 832/260
2nd fraction : 11/4×__ /65=___ / 260
===>715/260
3rd fraction : 17/13__ /20 =__ / 260
===>340/260
4th fraction : 3/2×__ / 130= __ / 260
===>390/260
Now from the above fractions : 832/260=16/5 is the greatest no..
