0.27, 27, 35%, 35

27, 0.27, 35, 35%

0.27, 27, 35, 35%

27, 0.27, 35%, 35

Answer 1

A

Explanation:

0.27

2/7 = .28

35% = 0.35

3/5 = 0.6

Answer 2

The sorted inputs in order from least to greatest is:

0.27 < 35% < 27 < 35

Explanation:

Given the data

0.27, 27, 35%, 35

as

• 35% = 35/100=0.35

so Rewriting these inputs as decimals:

0.27, 27, 0.35, 35

Sorting this table by decimal values in order from least to greatest:

0.27 35% 27 35

0.27 < 0.35 < 27 < 35

Thus, the sorted inputs in order from least to greatest is:

0.27 < 35% < 27 < 35
