3/5 = 9/15 = 36/60

2/3 = 10/15 = 40/60

0.65 = 65/100 = 13/20 = 39/60

Therefor, the answer is 3/5, 0.65, 2/3.

Answer:

From least to greatest
(3)/(5),0.65, (2)/(3)

Explanation:

Given : Numbers
(3)/(5),(2)/(3),0.65

To find : What is numbers from least to greatest ?

Solution :

Writing all numbers in one way i.e. in fraction.


0.65=(65)/(100)=(13)/(20)

Now to compare we have to make their denominator same.

So, Taking LCM of 5,3,20.


LCM(3,5,20)=60

Multiply and divide
(3)/(5) by 12


(3* 12)/(5* 12)=(36)/(60)

Multiply and divide
(2)/(3) by 20


(2* 20)/(3* 20)=(40)/(60)

Multiply and divide
(13)/(20) by 3


(13* 3)/(20* 3)=(39)/(60)

Comparing numerators,

36 <39 <40

i.e.
(36)/(60)<(39)/(60)< (40)/(60)


(3)/(5)<(13)/(20)< (2)/(3)


(3)/(5)<0.65< (2)/(3)

Therefore, From least to greatest
(3)/(5),0.65, (2)/(3)
