Which of the following statement(s) is/are TRUE? I. 3/71 < 3/91 < 3/99 II. 13/135 > 12/135 > 11/135 Correct Answer Only II

Solving for statement I,

 3/71 < 3/91 < 3/99

As the numerator is the same, an increase in the value of the denominator results in a small value of the fraction.

So, the given statement is false.
