Given - Sophia buys an apple that weighs 0.45 pound, a grapefruit that weighs $\frac{3}{4}$ pound, a navel orange that weighs $\frac{5}{8}$ pound, and a pear that weighs 0.5 pound.

To find - What is the order of the fruit from least weight to the greatest weight ?

As,

0.45 < 0.5 < 0.625 < 0.75

Apple , pear, navel orange, grapefruit
