First, you must understand the question. what % of 60 is 15, so I would write an equation to express this.

15 = 60x

From there, solve for x, so Divide by 60 on each side. The answer is 1/4, or 25%

The correct order would be:

5/64 x 3, 1/16 x 3, 3/32 x 4, 11/64 x 4, 7/16 x 3, 3/4 x 2, 3/8 x 4, 1 7/8 x 4, 2.25 x 2, 1.5 x 4, 3 3/8 x 3, 3.75 x 3

First we have to take all of the numbers and do the multiplication. It's often easiest to turn them in to decimals so that you have a common form.

3/32 x 4 = 3/8 = .375

3/4 x 2 = 3/2 = 1.5

1 7/8 x 4 = 15/4 = 3.75

2.25 x 2 = 4.5

1.5 x 4 = 6

3/8 x 4 = 3/2 = 1.5

5/64 x 3 = 5/32 = .156

3.75 x 3 = 11.25

1/16 x 3 = 3/16 = .1875

7/16 x 3 = 21/16 = 1.31

3 3/8 x 3 = 81/8 = 10.125

11/64 x 4 = 11/16 = .687

Now we can use those to put in order.

5/64 x 3 = 5/32 = .156

1/16 x 3 = 3/16 = .1875

3/32 x 4 = 3/8 = .375

11/64 x 4 = 11/16 = .687

7/16 x 3 = 21/16 = 1.31

3/4 x 2 = 3/2 = 1.5

3/8 x 4 = 3/2 = 1.5

1 7/8 x 4 = 15/4 = 3.75

2.25 x 2 = 4.5

1.5 x 4 = 6

3 3/8 x 3 = 81/8 = 10.125

3.75 x 3 = 11.25
