Correct Answer: Option C
Explanation

\(\frac{9}{10} \frac{4}{5} \frac{3}{4} \frac{17}{20}\) = \(\frac{18, 16, 15, 17}{20}\)

\(\frac{4}{5} \frac{9}{10} \frac{3}{4} \frac{17}{20}\) = \(\frac{16, 18, 15, 17}{20}\)

\(\frac{9}{10} \frac{17}{20} \frac{4}{5} \frac{3}{4}\) = \(\frac{18, 17, 16, 15}{20}\)

∴ \(\frac{9}{10}; \frac{17}{20}; \frac{4}{5}; \frac{3}{4}\) is in descending order.
