The difference between 4\(\frac{5}{7}\) and 2\(\frac{1}{4}\) is greater than sum of \(\frac{1}{14}\) and 1\(\frac{1}{2}\) by
\(\frac{23}{28}\)
\(\frac{24}{28}\)
\(\frac{50}{56}\)
\(\frac{27}{28}\)
\(\frac{48}{56}\)

Explanation

Difference between 4\(\frac{5}{7}\) and 2\(\frac{1}{4}\)

\(\frac{33}{7}\) - \(\frac{9}{4}\) = \(\frac{69}{24}\)

The sum of \(\frac{1}{14}\) and 1\(\frac{1}{14}\) + \(\frac{3}{2}\)

= \(\frac{11}{7}\)

\(\frac{69}{28}\) - \(\frac{11}{7}\) = \(\frac{25}{28}\)

= \(\frac{50}{56}\)
