Nico and Albert are finishing up a science project. They measured the length in inches of three insects. They also found the average measurement of two more insects from a website. Bug Length Bug Length in inches Lady bug StartFraction 3 Over 8 EndFraction Ant One-fourth Firefly StartFraction 7 Over 8 EndFraction Honeybee 0.8 Deer tick 0.2 Which list shows the lengths from shortest to longest? 0.2, one-fourth, StartFraction 3 Over 8 EndFraction, 0.8, StartFraction 7 Over 8 EndFraction 0.2, one-fourth, StartFraction 3 Over 8 EndFraction, StartFraction 7 Over 8 EndFraction, 0.8 One-fourth, 0.2, StartFraction 3 over 8 EndFraction, StartFraction 7 Over 8 EndFraction, 0.8 0.8, one-fourth, StartFraction 3 Over 8 EndFraction, 0.2, StartFraction 7 Over 8 EndFraction

Answer:

Explanation:

Given the length of the bugs as shown;

Lady bug = 3/8

Ant = 1/4

Firefly = 7/8

Honey bee = 0.8

Deer tick = 0.2

Before we arrange the length in ascending order (shortest to longest), we will have to represent them in percentage.

Lady bug = 3/8×100

= 300/8

= 37.5%

Ant = 1/4×100

Ant = 25%

Firefly = 7/8 × 100

Firefly = 87.5%

Honey bee = 0.8×100

Honey bee = 80%

Deer tick = 0.2×100

Deer tick = 20%

On rearranging in ascending order:

20%, 25%, 37.5%, 80%, 87.5%

Based on the insect

Deer tick, Ant, ladybug, honey bee, Firefly

Based on their length:

0.2, 1/4, 3/8, 0.8, 7/8
