Answer:

7.77, 7.773, 7 9/11, 157/20

Explanation:

First, convert any fractions to decimals to make it a bit easier to order.

7.773, 157/20, 7.77, 7 9/11

  • 157/20 = 7.85
  • 7 9/11 => 86/11 => 7.82

Now we have:

7.773, 7.85, 7.77, 7.82

Order from least to greatest:

7.77, 7.773, 7.82, 7.85

Rewrite using the original numbers in the question:

7.77, 7.773, 7 9/11, 157/20

Hope this helps!
