One way is to make them all decimals or all fractions:
.5 .2 .35 .48 .80 are the numbers above changed to decimals.
I will make them the same length (two digit past the decimal point) to compare
.50 .20 .35 .48 and .80
Now it is easy to put them in order
.2 .35 .48 .5 and .80
Let's put them into all fractions
5/10 1/5 35/100 12/25 and 4/5
Instead of finding a common denominator let's try this:
Think of them as test scores - the person who got 1 out 5 did the worst
Next came the person who got only 35 out of 100 - they only did better than the one above (1/5)
12/25 is almost 1/2 but a little below half the questions right
5/10 is exactly half the questions right (so it is bigger than 12/25 by a little).
4/5 is the best score (and the only one who passed).
So 1/5, 35/100, 12/25, .5 and 4/5 are in order least to greatest and match the answer above in bold.
-0.3 is the. correct answer.
(0.5,2)
0.5 is x value
2 is y value

x value is on dashed line (0.5)
y value is on more separated line going up and down. (2)
To plot 0.5, you can put it as an equation. 0.5= 1/2. So to plot it, 0.5 is half of 1. So plot it as in between the 1 and 0.
To plot 2 go up to the two on the y axis and then go over 0.5 and plot a point.
That is you're plotted point for (0.5,2)
Hope it helps!
Answer:
7, Nora collected 7 shells.
Step-by-step explanation:
Xavier collected 12 shells whilist she collected 5 fewer then Xavier.
12 - 5 = 7
Therefore, Nora collected 7 shells at the beach.
