Correct Answer: $x^{2}<x<\sqrt{x}$


Solution : Given: $0 < x < 1$
For $0 < x < 1$, it's always true that $x^{2} < x$ because squaring a fraction between 0 and 1 makes it smaller.
Similarly, it's always true that $x < \sqrt{x}$ because taking the square root of a fraction between 0 and 1 makes it larger.
So, the correct inequality is $x^{2}<x<\sqrt{x}$.
Hence, the correct answer is $x^{2}<x<\sqrt{x}$
