Of the following, which is least?

Explanation	Calculations	Help
$We apply ("Chain Rule for Inequalities") to note that the denominators increase in the following order$	$0.00071 < 0.0071 < 0.071 < 0.71 < 7.1$	Theory & Tactics Method Card INEQ1-C Click to view full details
$We observe that with the same positive numerator, a larger denominator gives a smaller fraction$	$\frac{0.03}{0.00071} > \frac{0.03}{0.0071} > \frac{0.03}{0.071} > \frac{0.03}{0.71} > \frac{0.03}{7.1}$
$We see that the fraction with the largest denominator is the smallest$	$\frac{0.03}{7.1} (Option E)$
