Answer:

The sorted inputs in order from least to greatest is:

4/9 < 7/12 < 2/3 < 5/6

Explanation:

Using the given inputs:

4/9,2/3,7/12,5/6

The least common denominator (LCD) is: 36

Rewriting as equivalent fractions with the LCD:

4/9, 2/3, 7/12, 5/6

16/36, 24/36, 21/36, 30/36

Sorting this table by the numerators of the equivalent fractions in order from least to greatest:

4/9 7/12 2/3 5/6

16/36 < 21/36 < 24/36 < 30/36

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

4/9 < 7/12 < 2/3 < 5/6
