Answer:

2/17, 8/17, and 11/17
7/21, 7/18, 7/14, 7/12, and 7/8
2/12, 2/10, 2/8, 2/6, and 2/4.

Explanation:

the order would be 2/17, 8/17, and 11/17 since the bottom number (denominator) stays the same while the numerator (top number) increases.

the order for the 2nd one would be:
7/21, 7/18, 7/14, 7/12, and 7/8. The reason for this is that when the numerator stays the same and the denominator increases, the value of the fraction decreases. For example, 1/2 is greater than 1/4, and 1/4 is more than 1/5 because 5 is greater than 4. This only works when the numerator (top number) stays the same.
The order for the 3rd one would be:
2/12, 2/10, 2/8, 2/6, and 2/4. Again, the numerator stays the same while the denominator changes. As the denominator goes down, the value of the fraction goes up.
Also if possible label your question the correct difficulty this is like middle school not college
