Correct Option: D

Using the L.C.M of the fractions, convert them to uniform base.

L.C.M = 36, the new fraction becomes: 6/36, 12/36, 54/36, 24/36, 32/36 and 48/36.

Range = highest value - lowest value

Highest among the given fraction = 54/36

Lowest among the given fraction = 6/36.

Range = (54/36) - (6/36) = 48/36 = 4/3
