Answer:

5.5, 5¼, 5 1/5 and 5.1.

Step-by-step explanation:

To list the height from greatest to least, we convert each of them to a decimal.


\text{Suki}=5(1)/(5)=5+(1)/(5)=5+0.2=5.2
\text{Also, Amir=5}(1)/(4)=5+(1)/(4)=5+0.25=5.25

Therefore, the weights are: 5.1, 5.2, 5.5 and 5.25

Arranging them from greatest to least gives:

5.5, 5.25, 5.2 and 5.1 which is equivalent to: 5.5, 5¼, 5 1/5 and 5.1.
