The correct option is C. Going to college shows that Mr. J.P. is smart and that he works harder than Fanny’s brothers do.
In the excerpt, the narrator says that Mr. J.P. has proved to be superior at University which means that he has gone to college. Moreover, the narrator also states that he is a scholar and that Fanny's "idle" brothers would "ill bear a comparison" with him. The narrator implies that Fanny's brothers are lazy because of the word "idle" used to described them. Moreover, by saying "ill bear a comparison", the narrator implies that if you compare Fanny's brothers and Mr. J.P., Mr. J.P. would definitely have more positive traits and characteristics than Fanny's brothers.
Well, you can turn these into percents to get a different view if the fraction thing is messing you up. Do this by dividing the top by the bottom and multiplying bu 100.
1/8 = 0.125 0.125 x 100 = 12.5%
3/8 = 0.375 0.375 x 100 = 37.5%
1/4 = 0.25 0.25 x 100 = 25%
1/8 is the smallest and 3/8 is the largest
Another way to do this would be to multiply 1/4 so all three numbers have equal denominatior.
1/4 x 2/2 = 2/8
comparing, 2/8 3/8 and 1/8, you can see that 1/8 is the least and 3/8 is the most
i believe the answer is compound-complex
hope im in time
