Fractions... fractions... FRACTIONS. It's easy to discern the numbers!! Keep in mind, everything - yes, EVERYTHING - even the UNIVERSE - that is multiplied by a fraction that is not improper or mixed is less than the original value. So let's go by PROCESS OF ELIMINATION. Eliminate answers A and D. What about E? It's a mixed number, and is equal to 1.5. You got it, B, C, and E have values greater than 1,653. Hope this helped!
