Answer:
<u>2/5 < 5/8 < 6/7 < 1 </u>
<u>OR</u>
<u>1 > 6/7 > 5/8 > 2/5</u>
Step-by-step explanation:
It is required to compare Two-fifths, Six-sevenths, Five-eighths, and 1
Two-fifths = 2/5
Six-sevenths = 6/7
Five-eighths = 5/8
So, the given numbers are: 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>
