Question

Put the following numbers in order from least to greatest 1/4 5/8 5/6 

Answer 1

To order the numbers 1/4, 5/8, 5/6 from least to greatest, convert them to decimals as 0.25, 0.625, and 0.833, respectively. The numbers in ascending order are 1/4, 5/8, and 5/6.

Step-by-step explanation:

To put the numbers 1/4, 5/8, 5/6 in order from least to greatest, we can convert them to decimal form to make it easier to compare them:

• 1/4 = 0.25
• 5/8 = 0.625
• 5/6 = approximately 0.833

Now that we have the decimal equivalents, we can easily see which numbers are smaller or larger. The order from least to greatest is:

1. 1/4 (0.25)
2. 5/8 (0.625)
3. 5/6 (0.833)
