Correct Answer: $R < Q < P $
Solution : $P = \frac{96}{95 \times 97} = \frac{1}{95} \times \frac{96}{97}$ $Q = \frac{97}{96 \times 98} = \frac{1}{96} \times \frac{97}{98}$ $R = \frac{1}{97}$ Comparing $P$ and $R$, $\frac{1}{95}\times\frac{96}{97} > \frac{1}{97}⇒P > R$. Comparing $P$ and $Q$, $\frac{1}{95}\times\frac{96}{97} > \frac{1}{96}\times \frac{97}{98}⇒P > Q$. Comparing $Q$ and $R$, $\frac{1}{96} \times \frac{97}{98}> \frac{1}{97}⇒Q > R$. Hence, the correct answer is $R<Q<P$.
