Answer:

1/8 least , 5/9 , 4/5 greatest

Explanation:

From least to greatest it is great to picture a pie chart and view on how many pieces of pie would fill the pan or if you cant do that , the divided the numerator to the denominator.

4/5 ----> 80%

5/9 ----> 55%

1/8 ----> 12%

Answer:

You didn't say from least to greatest or greatest to least but I will do both

least to greatest: 1/8, 5/9 4/5

Greatest to least: 4/5 5/9 1/8

Explanation:

1/8 is only 1 out of eight so that is obviously the least then you can covert 5/9 and 4/5 to the same denominator which is 45. 5/9 is now 25/45 and 4/5 is 36/45 36 is bigger than 25 so 4/5 is the greatest and 5/9 is the median
