Answer is : $2\over11$
multiply value of question and all option value with 5.
now question becomes,

now option becomes,
option a: $(8*5)\over35$ = $45\over35$which is greater than 1.
option b: $(8*5)\over37$ = $45\over37$ which is greater than 1.
option c: $(2*5)\over11$ = $10\over11$ which is less than 1.
