Answer:

The sorted inputs in order from least to greatest is:

-6/7 < -5/7 < -3/14 < 4/7

Explanation:

Given

-5/7, -3/14, 4/7, -6/7​

The least common denominator (LCD) is: 14

Rewriting as equivalent fractions with the LCD:

-5/7 -3/14 4/7 -6/7

-10/14 -3/14 8/14 -12/14

Sorting this table by the numerators of the equivalent fractions in order from least to greatest:

-6/7 -5/7 -3/14 4/7

-12/14 < -10/14 < -3/14 < 8/14

Therefore, the sorted inputs in order from least to greatest is:

-6/7 < -5/7 < -3/14 < 4/7
