The fractions

\frac{44}{49},\frac{33}{38},\frac{22}{25} and\frac{24}{29}

are written in descending order as

Solution:

Concept:

To compare fractions, convert each into a decimal value. The fraction with the higher decimal is larger.

Explanation:

Compute each fraction as a decimal:

\frac{44}{49} \approx 0.898

\frac{33}{38} \approx 0.868

\frac{22}{25} = 0.880

\frac{24}{29} \approx 0.828

Arrange these decimals from largest to smallest:

0.898 > 0.880 > 0.868 > 0.828

Thus the descending order of the fractions is:

\frac{44}{49}, \frac{22}{25}, \frac{33}{38}, \frac{24}{29}

Answer:

\frac{44}{49}, \frac{22}{25}, \frac{33}{38}, \frac{24}{29}

which corresponds to option B.
