Explanation:

The correct question is

Four photographers are taking pictures at a school dance. Photographer A takes 2/5 of the pictures, Photographer B takes 4% , Photographer C takes 0.29 , and Photographer D takes 27/100 . Which choice lists the photographers in order from least to greatest by the amount of pictures they take?

we know that

1) Photographer A takes 2/5 of the pictures

That means

the amount of pictures take by photographer A in percent form is equal to multiply the fraction by 100

`2/5(100)=40\%` ---> percentage form

2) Photographer B takes 4%

3) Photographer C takes 0.29

That means

the amount of pictures take by photographer C in percent form is equal to multiply the decimal number by 100

`0.29(100)=29\%` ---> percentage form

4) Photographer D takes 27/100

That means

the amount of pictures take by photographer D in percent form is equal to multiply the fraction by 100

`(27/100)(100)=27\%` ---> percentage form

Lists the photographers in order from least to greatest by the amount of pictures they take

1) Photographer B (4%)

2) Photographer D (27%)

3) Photographer C (29%)

4) Photographer A (40%)
