We can use some number sense , and avoid some work.
First, since 3/5 is greater than 0.5, we can conclude that 1/2 + 3/5 = a number that's GREATER THAN 1
Also notice that (1+3)/(2+5) = 4/7, and 4/7 a number that's LESS THAN 1
So, we get:
Quantity A: a number that's GREATER THAN 1
Quantity B: a number that's LESS THAN 1
Answer: A
