Final answer:

To rank the numbers from least to greatest (-3/8, 5/16, -0.65, 2/4), we first convert them to decimals to compare them easily, resulting in the order of -0.65, -3/8, 5/16, and 2/4.

Step-by-step explanation:

In order to list the numbers from least to greatest, we must convert them all to the same format for easier comparison. Given the numbers are -3/8, 5/16, -0.65, and 2/4 (which is the same as 1/2), we can begin by converting each to a decimal or a common denominator.

-3/8 equals approximately -0.375.
5/16 equals approximately 0.3125.
-0.65 remains as -0.65.
2/4 (1/2) equals 0.5.

Now, we order them from least to greatest:

  1. -0.65
  2. -3/8 (-0.375)
  3. 5/16 (0.3125)
  4. 2/4 (0.5)

Therefore, the numbers listed from least to greatest are: -0.65, -3/8, 5/16, 2/4.

I hope this is right, the negatives should go first because you are taking away, then positives
