Answer:
gain
Step-by-step explanation:
A quick way to do this is by recalling the fact that

, so the largest value that

alone (for any real value of

) can take on is 1.
This means

, and so

.
So the maximum value of this function is 7.
Do 27 divided by 4 1/2 or 4.5. That will be your answer. Let me know if this helps!
The correct order would be:
5/64 x 3, 1/16 x 3, 3/32 x 4, 11/64 x 4, 7/16 x 3, 3/4 x 2, 3/8 x 4, 1 7/8 x 4, 2.25 x 2, 1.5 x 4, 3 3/8 x 3, 3.75 x 3
First we have to take all of the numbers and do the multiplication. It's often easiest to turn them in to decimals so that you have a common form.
3/32 x 4 = 3/8 = .375
3/4 x 2 = 3/2 = 1.5
1 7/8 x 4 = 15/4 = 3.75
2.25 x 2 = 4.5
1.5 x 4 = 6
3/8 x 4 = 3/2 = 1.5
5/64 x 3 = 5/32 = .156
3.75 x 3 = 11.25
1/16 x 3 = 3/16 = .1875
7/16 x 3 = 21/16 = 1.31
3 3/8 x 3 = 81/8 = 10.125
11/64 x 4 = 11/16 = .687
Now we can use those to put in order.
5/64 x 3 = 5/32 = .156
1/16 x 3 = 3/16 = .1875
3/32 x 4 = 3/8 = .375
11/64 x 4 = 11/16 = .687
7/16 x 3 = 21/16 = 1.31
3/4 x 2 = 3/2 = 1.5
3/8 x 4 = 3/2 = 1.5
1 7/8 x 4 = 15/4 = 3.75
2.25 x 2 = 4.5
1.5 x 4 = 6
3 3/8 x 3 = 81/8 = 10.125
3.75 x 3 = 11.25
