Explanation:

I dont know what you mean by closest, by if you are talking about ordering then it will be

1/4= 0.25

1/2=0.5

2/3= 0.666667

smallest to biggest would be

0.25,0.5,0.666667

Answer:

1/2 and 2/3

Explanation:

You can start by turning them all into decimals.

Divide the numerator by the denominator.

1/4 = .25

1/2= .5

2/3= .667

then you can see that .5 is closer to .6 than it is to .3 (.25 rounded).
