(Check attached images).

Step-by-step explanation:

Exercise 1.

a. Convert to decimals.

To order the numbers from least to greaters, convert them to decimals and compare.

$5.2(percent)=0.052\\ \\\frac{1}{7} =0.1429\\\\ -0.8=-0.8000\\ \\\frac{-11}{5} =-2.2$

b. Select the second least number.

-0.8.

Exercise 2.

a. Convert to decimals.

$-3.4(percent)=-0.034\\ \\-0.031\\\\ -0.2\\ \\-\sqrt{0.8}= -0.8944$

b. Select the correct number.

$-\frac{1}{5}$.

Exercise 3.

a. Convert to decimals.

After seeing that there are negative and positive numbers, and with the premise that negative numbers are always lesser than positive numbers, we'll only compare the positive numbers.

59%=0.59

3/5=0.6

b. Select the correct number.

3/5.

Exercise 4.

a. Convert to decimals.

-0.35

-3.5%= -0.035

b. Conclude.

Seeing that -3.5% is less than -0.35, the symbol that makes the statement true is ">".

Exercise 5.

a. Try to visually estimate b.

B appears to have a value of -0.9.

b. Convert the numbers to decimals.

-3.4%= -0.034

-0.031

-1/5= -0.2

$-\sqrt{0.8}= -0.8944$

c. Select the correct answer.

Since we estimated the value of b as -0.9, the number that best adequates to its value is $-\sqrt{0.8}$.

Exercise 6.

a. Convert to decimals.

After seeing that there are negative and positive numbers, and with the premise that negative numbers are always lesser than positive numbers, we'll only compare the positive numbers.

5.2%= 0.052

1/7= 0.1429

b. Select the correct number.

5.2% is the second largest.

Exercise 7.

a. Convert to decimals.

6/7= 0.857143

0.857

b. Select the correct answer.

Seeing that 0.857 is marked as an approximate by the

ellipsis,  and considering that 6/7 is an irrational numbers, we can conclude that the number that better fits the situation and makes the statement true is "=".

Exercise 8.

a. Convert to decimals.

After seeing that there are negative and positive numbers, and with the premise that negative numbers are always lesser than positive numbers, we'll only compare the negative numbers.

-4.6

$-\sqrt{21} =-4.5826$

b. Select the correct answer.

The smallest number is -4.6.
