Answer 1

Option 4

Explanation:

Answer 2

Option 4 -
`-1.4,\ -(1)/(2),\ (1)/(5),\ 3`

Explanation:

To find : Which set of rational numbers is arranged from least to greatest?

Solution :

The set of rational numbers are

`3,\ (1)/(5),\ -1.4,\ -(1)/(2)`

Writing all number in one form,

`(1)/(5)=0.2`

`-(1)/(2)=-0.5`

Now, -1.4<-0.5<0.2<3

From least to greatest the set of natural numbers are

`-1.4<\ -(1)/(2)<(1)/(5)<\ 3`

So,
`-1.4,\ -(1)/(2),\ (1)/(5),\ 3`

Therefore, option 4 is correct.
