Question

Order all the numbers from least to greatest.

4/12, 2/8, - 4/5, - 1/8, 15/16

Answer 1

To order the given numbers from least to greatest, convert them to decimals and compare their values.

Step-by-step explanation:

To order the given numbers from least to greatest: 4/12, 2/8, -4/5, -1/8, 15/16, we can convert them to decimals and compare their values.

1. Convert 4/12 to a decimal: 4/12 = 0.33
2. Convert 2/8 to a decimal: 2/8 = 0.25
3. Convert -4/5 to a decimal: -4/5 = -0.8
4. Convert -1/8 to a decimal: -1/8 = -0.13
5. Convert 15/16 to a decimal: 15/16 = 0.94

Now, we can order the decimals from least to greatest: -0.8, -0.13, 0.25, 0.33, 0.94. Therefore, the numbers in order from least to greatest are:

-4/5, -1/8, 2/8, 4/12, 15/16.
