Answer:
The first order.
Step-by-step explanation:
What do these symbols mean?
The funny shaped line is a square root, meaning what times itself (so for example, 3 x 3) gets that number. So the square root of 9=3.
The small 2 in the top right of the big numbers means square. The opposite. This means multiply that big number by itself twice. If the small number was say, 7, you would multiply the big number by itself 7 times. A common mistake is propel multiply the big number by the small number. The square used in these is 2 to the power of 3, the small number. This means you do 2x2x2, as the small 3 determines how many time you multiply the big number, 2. The result of 2x2x2=8.
The fraction is 11/9. The 9 means how many parts are in a whole number. The 11 means how many of those parts you actually have. Like a pizza-if you had a pizza (the whole) split into 7 parts, 7 would be your bottom number (as the 9 is here). If you are 4 parts and were left with 3 parts, 3 would be your top number (as the 11 is here). Seeing as 11 is bigger than 9, you have to imagine 2 pizzas. Each is split into 9, and you have 11 parts altogether. Thsi is 1 whole pizza and 2 extra parts, making the fraction 1 and 2/9. This is jaut another way to write 11/9 but I find it easier to look at.
The answer?
So. We have established that 11/9 = 1 & 2/9
And that 2 cubed (with the small 3 on it) = 8.
Amd the square roots of 5, 11 and 20 are approximately (Not exactly, but close enough) the following:
5. 2.2
11. 3.3
20. 4.4
So this leaves us a bunch of numbers to put in order from smallest to largest. This is fairly easy. It's not the second one. 8>3.3. It's not the third one. 8>2.2. It's not the fourth one. 1 & 2/9 may be smaller than 8, but 2.2 isn't. So this leaves the first order.
*Note that the symbol > means greater than or bigger than. So 8>2 means 8,is bigger than 2.
