Given

Differences:

$\frac{4}{5}$, $-1\frac{1}{2}$, $0.9$

Required

Order from least to greatest

We have: $\frac{4}{5}$, $-1\frac{1}{2}$, $0.9$

First convert fractions to decimal

$\frac{4}{5} = 0.8$

$-1\frac{1}{2}= -1.5$

$-\frac{3}{4} = -0.75$

So, the differences become:

$0.8$, $-1.5$, $0.9$

Now arrange from least to greatest

$-1.5$, $0.8$ and $0.9$

From the above representation,

The greatest is: 0.9

By student names, we have:

Clara, Raj and Jacob

This is done by simply replacing the numbers with the student name.
