Bis definately more than a as B is 2*a
if you look at c numerator getting multiplied by 7 denominator is getting multiplied by 3
so values is more than and b
now if you compare A and D numerator getting multiplied by 45
where denominator getting multiplied by 15 so you can conclude D is more than A,b,C
in E numerator is multiplied by 75 but denominator is multiplied by 225so this greater than B.

so d is more than anything

Generally, to solve these problems, make the denominator same for all the fractions. Once you do that you have your result.

You can verify OA using calculator if you still have any doubt.
