Question

Which of the following lists is in order from smallest to largest?

Answer 1

Answer:

$\frac{1}{2} < \frac{5}{8} < \frac{7}{11} < \frac{2}{3}$  is the correct ascending order.

Step-by-step explanation:

The given fractions are :  $\frac{1}{2} , \frac{5}{8} , \frac{7}{11} , \frac{2}{3}$

Convert the given fractions into decimals,

So, $\frac{1}{2} = 0.5 , \frac{5}{8} = 0.62, \frac{7}{11} = 0.63, \frac{2}{3} = 0.66$

Now, arranging the decimals into ascending order , we get

0.5 < 0.62 < 0.63 < 0.66

Hence, $\frac{1}{2} < \frac{5}{8} < \frac{7}{11} < \frac{2}{3}$  is the correct ascending order.
