Answer:
2.125, 2 3/4, 3, 3.5
Explanation:
Change 2 3/4 to a decimal to make the comparison easier since the other three numbers are already decimals.
2 3/4 = 2.75
Now we compare: 3.5, 2.75, 2.125, 3
Numbers starting with 2 are smaller than numbers starting with 3.
Now look at the first decimal place to the right of the decimal point and compare them. Remember that 3 is the same as 3.0
Compare: 3.5, 2.75, 2.125, 3.0
The increasing order is:
2.125, 2.75, 3, 3.5
Change 2.75 back to a mixed numeral.
Answer: 2.125, 2 3/4, 3, 3.5
