The fractions 7/8, 5/11, 2/3 arranged in least to greatest form is
(5)/(11), (2)/(3), (7)/(8)

Solution:

We have been given three numbers and have been asked to arrange it from least to greatest value.

The numbers we have been given are fraction.


(7)/(8), (5)/(11) \text { and } (2)/(3)

Since the given numbers are fractions, to compare them we need to have a common denominator or they can be converted to decimal form.

For the simplicity of the calculation we will convert the given fractions to decimals.


\begin{array}{l}{(7)/(8)=0.875} \\\\ {(5)/(11)=0.454} \\\\ {(2)/(3)=0.666}\end{array}

So, from the above calculated numbers we can arrange them in ascending order as follows:

0.454,0.666,0.875.

So, if we rewrite the numbers in fraction form we get:


(5)/(11), (2)/(3), (7)/(8)

Therefore, the fractions arranged in least to greatest is
(5)/(11), (2)/(3), (7)/(8)
