Answer:

1/8, 1/5, 1/3

Explanation:

We can divide the numbers in the fractions and convert them to decimal form.

1/5 = 0.200

1/8 = 0.125

1/3 = 0.333

So, we can rank these from least to greatest.

0.125 is the least, and then 0.200, and then 0.333

So, 1/8 is the least, 1/5 is the middle, and 1/3 is the greatest.

Also, the smaller the number in the denominator, the greater the fraction.
