    4/5
    খ)
    3/5
    গ)
    5/6
    ঘ)
    6/7
    ঙ)
    5/8

    Explanation

    he largest possible circle cut out of square has diameter equal to side of the square. Area of circle = π × (d 2 /4) ;where d is the diameter of the circle Area of circle = (3.14) × (10 2 /4) =78.5 sq.cm [Approx.] Area of square = s × s ; where s is the side of the square Area of square = 10 × 10 = 100 sq.cm Ratio of circle to square = 78.5/100 = 0.785 = 0.8 [Approx.] = 4/5
