First, express all the mixed numbers as decimals:

2 1/2 = (2x2+1)/2 = 5/2 = 2.5

1 2/5 = (5x1+2)/5 = 7/5 = 1.4

1 3/4 = (1x4+3)/4 = 7/4 = 1.75

2 2/3 = (2x3+2)/3 = 8/3 = 2.67

3 1/4 = (3x4+1)/4 = 13/4 = 3.25

Now, we have

1. 2.5

2. 1.4

3. 1.75

4. 2.67

5. 3.25

From least to greatest.

2. 1.4

3. 1.75

1. 2.5

4. 2.67

5. 3.25
