Question

Help im terrible with factions

Answer 1

Order from least to greatest. Change each fraction into decimal by dividing.

5/8 = 0.625

1/3 = ~0.33

17/24 = ~0.71

The order is: 0.33, 0.625, 0.71, or

First (least): 1/3

Second: 5/8

Third (most): 17/24

hope this helps

Answer 2

The common denominator of all three fractions is 24

5/8 = 15/24

1/3 = 8/24

and 17/24 stays the same so

3 is first

1 is second

2 is third
