Question

Marc is growing three bean plants as part of a science experiment. Plant A is 1/3 inch tall. Plant B is 3/4inch tall. Plant C is 5/6 inch tall. Order the plants from the shortest to the tallest.

Answer 1

From shortest to tallest the answer is Plant A, Plant B, and then Plant C.

Explanation:

To find this answer I first converted the fractions into decimals.

Plant A: 1/3 inch = 0.33 inch

Plant B: 3/4 inch = 0.75 inch

Plant C: 5/6 inch = 0.83 inch

Therefore, the answer is Plant A, Plant B, Plant C from shortest to tallest.
