Question

Which of the following lists 3/6, 112, 15/18 in order from least to greatest?

Answer 1

Order 3/6, 9/12, and 15/18 from least to greatest.

• Keep in mind, there are multiple ways into finding the answer to this question.

First, we must simplify these fractions as much as possible then find a possible common denominator.

3/6 simplifies to 1/2

9/12 simplifies to 3/4

15/18 simplifies to 5/6

Now we have fractions of 1/2(3/6), 3/4(9/12), and 5/6(15/18).

If we look at these fractions, we can see that they have a common denominator of 12. So let's convert these fractions into having a denominator of 12;

1/2 x 6/6 = 6/12

3/4 x 3/3 = 9/12

5/6 x 2/2 = 10/12.

So now we have the fractions 6/12(3/6), 9/12(9/12), and 10/12(5/6).

These are already ordered from least to greatest.

So therefore, this'll be ordered;

3/6, 9/12, and 15/18.

Answer 2

3/6 ⇒ 9/12⇒ 15/18

Explanation:

To put the following lists 3/6,9/12, 15/18 in order from least to greatest we can turn the fraction into decimal..

3/6 = 0.5

15/18 = 0.83333333333

9/12= 0.75

Hence from least to greatest:

0.5,0.75, 0.83333333333

Also know as:
