Answer 1

A. 1.2 in., 1
`(1)/(3)`in., 1.5 in.,
`√(3)` in., 2.4 in.,
`√(8)` in.

Explanation:

The heights of the clay pots are:

1.5 in.

`√(3)` in.

1.2 in.

`√(8)` in.

1
`(1)/(3)` in.

2.4 in.

Putting all the heights in decimal form:

1.5 in.

1.7 in.

1.2 in.

2.8 in.

1.3 in.

2.4 in.

Arranging the heights from least to greatest:

1.2 in.

2.4 in.

2.8 in.

Converting back to their original form, having arranged the heights from least to greatest, you get the answer is A:

A. 1.2 in., 1
`(1)/(3)`in., 1.5 in.,
`√(3)` in., 2.4 in.,
`√(8)` in.
