A)The quantity in Column A is greater.
B)The quantity in Column B is greater.
C)The two quantities are equal.
D)The relationship cannot be determined from the information given.
Since, the line is passing through origin, equation of the given line would be \(y = mx\)
Now,
x-coordinate = \(\frac{47}{99}\)
y-coordinate = \(\frac{47}{101}\)
i.e. \(x > y\)
Also, (a, b) lies on the same line - So \( a > b\)
Hence, option A
