Answer:
12, 3/5, 25%, -1/12, -0.17
Explanation:
The simplest way to do this is to convert all of the numbers into either a fraction, decimal, or a percentage. In my opinion, it is easier to use a percentage here.
25% is already a percentage
-0.17 = -17%
3/5 = 60%
-1/12 (you can use a calculator to divide and find the percentage here) = -8.33
12 = 1200%
Now that the rational numbers are all in the same unit, it is easier to sort them. In the end, we get this list (from greatest to least):
12, 3/5, 25%, -1/12, -0.17
FINAL ANSWER: 12, 3/5, 25%, -1/12, -0.17
