Detailed Solution

Concept: Without doing long calculations we need to solve the fractions. For that we are given 1 number and its decimal value so using that we can solve others without long calculation.
17 =0.142857
27 =2×17 =2×0.142857 =0.285714
37 =3×17 =3×0.142857 =0.428571
47 =4×17 =4×0.142857 =0.571428
57 =5×17=5×0.142857 =0.714285
67 =6×17 =6×0.142857 =0.857142
Hence, the correct option is 1.
