Answer:

2/8, 3/6, 3/4.

Step-by-step explanation:

First, you find the common denominator of the fractions listed. One way of finding it is this:

6: 6, 12, 18, 24, 30...

4: 4, 8, 12, 16, 20, 24...

8: 8, 16, 24, 32, 40...

You may notice that each number has the shared multiple: 24. Since 6 is multiplied 4 times to get 24, you multiply 3 by 4. So, your equivalent fraction is 12/24.

The same thing with 4, since you have to multiply 4 by 6 to get 24, you multiply 3 by 6. Thus, you have 18/24.

Again, you multiply 8 by 3 to get 24, so you do 2 multiplied by 3. This gets you to 6/24.

Now you can easily line up the fractions from least to greatest.
