Question

PLEASE HELP!!!

Which answer choice shows the numbers in order from least to greatest?

A) 2/3, -1/2, 7/12, 0.82
B) -1/2, 1.3, 7,12, -0.45, 0.82
C) -0.45, -1/2, -2/3, 7/12, 0.83
D) -0.45, -1/2, 7/12, -2/3, 0.82

Answer 1

c

Explanation:

a has a positive before negative, so its ruled out

1.3 is more than -0.45, so b is ruled out

everything in c is in the right order. -1/2 is -0.5 and -2/3 is -0.66, 7/12 is -.58

d is incorrect because -2/3 isnt more than 7/12

Answer 2

[See Below]

Explanation:

`\boxed{Hey~There!}`

__________________________________________________________

`\boxed{First~turn~all~the~fraction~into~decimals:}`

• 
  `-(2)/(3) =0.666666667`
• 
  `-(1)/(2) =-0.5`
• 
  `(7)/(12) =0.583333333`

`\boxed{Round~to~the~nearest~hundredth:}`

• To round, look at the number in the hundredths place and look to the right of that number, if the number is greater than or equal to
  `5` then you round up. If the number is less then
  `5` then you round down.

• 
  `-0.666666667=-0.67`

• 
  `0.583333333=0.58`

`\boxed{Now~order~them~from~least~to~greatest:}`

• 
  `-0.67~or~(-(2)/(3) )`
• 
  `-0.45`
• 
  `-0.5~or~(-(1)/(2) )`
• 
  `0.58~or~( (7)/(12) )`
• 
  `0.82`

__________________________________________________________

`\boxed{So~based~on~the~work~above~your~answer~would~be:}`

• Some of your choices are incomplete as well as some of the numbers are different in certain ones. So given that, I'm not
  `100`% sure which one it is exactly since, you didn't put the options in correctly.

• Although I can give you the correct order:
  `-(2)/(3) ,`
  `-0.45`,
  `-(1)/(2)`,
  `(7)/(12)`,
  `0.82`.
