Answer: 0.41, 0.5, 3/5

Explanation:

The first step is to find what 3/5 is as a decimal - to find this, change it to 6/10, as it is equivalent to 3/5 and is able to make the transition from a fraction to a decimal because of its denominator, 10. 6/10 as a decimal is 0.6.

Now, our numbers are 0.41, 0.5, and 0.6. Our last step is to look in the tenths place of these decimals and order them from least to greatest - 4 from 0.41, 5 from 0.5, and 6 from 0.6. Because the original 0.6 was a 3/5, and we have our answer already, we can change that decimal back to 3/5. Thus, 0.41, 0.5, and 3/5 is your final answer!
