The slope of a line is the change in y coordinates divided by the change in x coordinates. Zero is the slope of a flat line. The steeper the line, the greater the value of the slope. For instance a slope of 587 is steeper than a slope of 48. A vertical line is not given a slope measurement - it is said to be indeterminate, so there is no representation for the "steepest" line. An extremely steep line will have a slope value approaching plus or minus infinity.
each contour line represents an equal value, so the closer the lines the steeper the slope

Determine which line is steeper by finding out which has a greater rise over run. I trust you know what rise over run is. You can determine which has a greater rise over run by dividing the rise by the run, and then whichever line has the largest decimal is the steepest.
Steepest line possible dealing with slope is up to, but not including infinity.

The area with the steepest slope is the area where the contour lines are bunched closest together.
Antarctica has the steepest average slope of any continent, with much of its surface being covered by thick ice sheets that can create steep gradients.
I believe it is a cold front
The closer the contour lines the steeper the slope.
The area with the steepest slope on a map is typically where the contour lines are closest together, indicating a rapid change in elevation over a short distance. Look for areas where the contour lines are tightly spaced or where the lines bend sharply, as this suggests a steep slope.

Harakiri in Mayrhofen. It is 78% which is the same as 38 degrees.

One of the steepest ILS glide slopes (GS) is found at the London City Airport, with about a 6° GS where the norm is about 3°.Other steep approaches are found in Kathmandu, Switzerland and Austria.
Steepest is an adjective.
