Smallest Fraction: 3 / 5 =======> 18 / 30


Answer:

Order from Least to Greatest

3/5 < 2/3 < 11/15 < 5/6

Showing Work

Rewriting as fractions if necessary:

11/15, 3/5, 2/3, 5/6

The least common denominator (LCD) is: 30.

Rewriting as equivalent fractions with the LCD:

22/30, 18/30, 20/30, 25/30

Ordering these fractions by the numerator in order from least to greatest:

18/30 < 20/30 < 22/30 < 25/30

Therefore, your input in order from least to greatest is:

3/5, < 2/3, < 11/15, < 5/6


Therefore, Answer =====> 3 / 5 is the Smallest Fraction =====> 18 / 30


Hope that helps!!!! : )
