Question

Order least to greatest 0.23, 19%, 1/5 please help

Answer 1

19% , 1/5 , 0.23
19% as a decimal is .19 and 1/5 in a decimal is .20

Answer 2

`19\%,(1)/(5),0.23`

Explanation:

We are asked to order the given number from least to greatest.

We will convert each number into a fraction and then compare the numbers as:

`0.23=0.23* (100)/(100)=(23)/(100)`

`19\%=(19)/(100)`

`(1)/(5)=(1*20)/(5*20)=(20)/(100)`

Order fro least to greatest:

`(19)/(100)<(20)/(100)<(23)/(100)`

Therefore, our given numbers in order from least to greatest would be
`19\%,(1)/(5),0.23`.
