Question

Put these numbers in order from greatest to least

5/7, 8/9, 2/3, 0.62
​

Answer 1

8/9 , 5/7 , 2/3 , 0.62

Explanation:

Two ways of solving:

1. Set all to fractions with common denominators

or

2. set all to decimals

The second way is with all honesty easier, so i'll show you that way.

to convert a fraction into a decimal do numerator divided by denominator

so 5/7 = 0.714285714

8/9= 0.888888888...

2/3= 0.6666666 ...

then 0.62

Then simply arrange them in order.

0.888 , 0.7142 , 0.66666 , 0.62

8/9 , 5/7 , 2/3 , 0.62
