Question

3/4, 5/6, 16/25 , 9/15 Write fractions in order of size, start with the smallest fraction

Answer 1

`(9)/(6), (16)/(25), (3)/(4), (5)/(6)`

Explanation:

Given fractions:

`(3)/(4) , { (5)/(6) } , (16)/(25) , (9)/(15)`

We first find the equivalent fractions of the given fractions

`(3)/(4)=(3 * 75)/(4 * 75)= (225)/(300)`

`(5)/(6) = (5 * 50)/(6 *50 ) = (250)/(300)`

`(16)/(25) = (16 * 12)/(25 * 12) = (192)/(300)`

`(9)/(15) = (9 * 12)/(15 * 12) = (108)/(300)`

Comparing the fractions starting from the smallest.

`(108)/(300),(192)/(300),(225)/(300),(250)/(300)`

Hence the order of the given fractions from the smallest is:

`(9)/(6), (16)/(25), (3)/(4), (5)/(6)`
