Answer:


\{(1)/(8),(1)/(4),(1)/(2)\}

Explanation:

Required

Which is ordered in ascending order

To do this, it is best to convert the fractions to decimal and then make comparison.

From the options, only (b) is ordered in ascending order and the proof is as follows.


\{(1)/(8),(1)/(4),(1)/(2)\}

Convert to decimals


\{0.125, 0.25, 0.5\}

By comparison:


0.125< 0.25< 0.5

Hence, (b) is ordered from least to greatest
