Question

Put these numbers in order smallest to largest 3/4,2/7,2/10,5/8,2/3,8/4

Answer 1

`(2)/(10), (2)/(7), (5)/(8), (2)/(3), (3)/(4), (8)/(4)`

Explanation:

It is easier to tell what each value is worth if we convert to decimal form

`(3)/(4)=0.75`

`(2)/(7)=0.285714...`

`(2)/(10)=0.2`

`(5)/(8)=0.625`

`(2)/(3)=0.666666...`

`(8)/(4)=2`

ordered

0.2, 0.285714..., 0.625, 0.66666..., 0.75, 2

back to fraction

`(2)/(10), (2)/(7), (5)/(8), (2)/(3), (3)/(4), (8)/(4)`
