Answer 2

B

Explanation:

We can convert all the values to decimals or all to proper fractions. Let's choose fractions. This gives us:

2 7/5 (an improper mixed fraction) which is 3 2/5 in proper form

5.36= 5 36/100

5 3/5

33/6 = 5 3/6.

We can see immediately in the ones place that 3 is the least since each of the other values has 5. Only one list has 3 2/5 or listed here as 2 7/5 as the least. B is the correct list.
