Best answer
The correct choice is (c) F/R

Easiest explanation: Coefficient of static friction is defined as the ratio of limiting frictional force to the normal reaction force. Limiting frictional force is denoted by ‘F’ and normal frictional force is denoted by ‘R’. Therefore, option ‘c’ is correct.
