Question

Order the rational numbers 0.69,13/20,1/2,0.6,17/25 from least to greatest

Answer 1

1/2,0.6,13/20,17/25,0.69

Answer 2

We have to order the given rational numbers from least to greatest.

`0.69 , (13)/(20) , (1)/(2) , 0.6 , (17)/(25)`

Firstly, we will convert the fractions into decimal form.

`(13)/(20)` = 0.65

`(1)/(2)` = 0.5

`(17)/(25)`= 0.68

Therefore, the given rational numbers in decimal form are:

`0.69 , 0.65 , 0.5 , 0.6 , 0.68`

Therefore, the rational numbers arranged in the order from least to greatest is:

0.5 , 0.6 , 0.65 , 0.68 , 0.69

Expressing again in fraction form, we get

`(1)/(2)` , 0.6 ,
`(13)/(20)` ,
`(17)/(25)` , 0.69
