Answer:

<u>1 > 6/7 > 5/8 > 2/5</u>    <u>OR</u>     <u>2/5 < 5/8 < 6/7 < 1 </u>

Step-by-step explanation:

Given 2/5, 6/7, 5/8, and 1

We need to make the numbers in order from the least to the greatest or from the greatest to the least

The easy method is convert the rational numbers to decimal numbers

So,

2/5 = 0.4

6/7 ≈ 0.857

5/8 = 0.625

1 = 1

So, the numbers form the least to the greatest are:

0.4 , 0.625 , 0.857 , 1

So,

2/5 , 5/8 , 6/7 , 1

The inequality correctly compares the numbers are:

<u>2/5 < 5/8 < 6/7 < 1</u>

Or can be written from the greatest to the least as:

<u>1 > 6/7 > 5/8 > 2/5 </u>

Find the median of the data
kicyunya [14]
The median is the middle number of the data plot. Since there 30 numbers, there isn't a exact middle. To find the median you must add the two middle number then divide by 2. 
In this case you must add 87 and 88 which gives 175.
Then divide 175 by 2 which gives 87.5
87.5 is the median
