So you'd have to convert all of the values to one form, and I find it easiest to do it in decimals. 61% would be 0.61, 0.605 stays the same, 3/5 would be 0.6, and 59% would be 0.59. Now you can order them:
0.59, 0.6, 0.605, 0.61
You have to convert them back to their original form, however, so your answer would be
59%, 3/5, 0.605, 61%
I hope this helps!
