I also tested cases.
r=1/2, s=3/2-------------this scenario gave me answer choice 4. Then I tested a more extreme case r=9/10,s=3/2-----this gave me rs=27/20...

In this kind of problem I generally draw a number line and put the values. Here 0,1 and 2. Now r and s are to be put between 0 and 1, and between 1 and 2 respectively.

We are asked to find Result < 1 (MUST) so consider the EXTREME cases to prove it wrong (I mean make the Result >= 1)

1. r/s: take r the max value(Numerator) and s the least value(Denominator) (say r = 0.9999999.... and s=1.00000000001) still r/s < 1 [Suffice]
2. rs: take max value for r and that for s also. (say r=0.99999... and s=1.9999... => rs >1) [Does not Suffice]
3. s-r: take max s and least r (say r=0.1 and s=1.9 => s-r = 1.8 ) [Does not Suffice]

The key is As result MUST be < 1 if we can prove single case is wrong (Result > 1) then the choice is wrong and immediately discarded .

This works for me but the idea varies from person to person.

@selfmade : The stem asks "must be true". There is a distinction between Must be & could be true".

II can be / cannot be true depending on plugged numbers. But I will ALWAYS BE true for ALL the numbers in that range.

SO OA is very much 1
