What is 1/4,9/9,5/6 in greatest to least

Answer 1

Answer: 9/9, 5/6, 1/4

Explanation:

We are tasked with the following: Put the fractions: 1/4,9/9,5/6 in "greatest to least"

1. We can immediately recognize that 9/9th is the greatest, since when a numerator and denominator possess the same number, it is essentially considered a "whole" or 1.
2. Next we can treat 5/6th as the second greatest, as it is only 1/6th away from a whole.
3. Finally we have to classify 1/4th as the third greatest, or the least because it is 3/4ths away from a whole, or in other words, only 25% complete.
4. With our information in mind, we can categorize greatest to least as: 9/9, 5/6, 1/4
