1. Answer:

   First find the LCM of the denominators.

   The LCM of 2,4,2,8 is 8.

   Then convert all of the fractions given into equivalent fractions by converting the denominators to 8.

   7/2=7×4/2×4=28/8.

   7/8=7/8 [ since denominator is already 8].

   5/2=5×4/2×4=20/8.

   3/4=3×2/4×2=6/8.

   Now arrange them in descending order.

   28/8,20/8,7/8,6/8

   Final answer- 7/2,5/2,7/8,3,4
