I NEED TO PUT THESE NUMBERS IN ORDER FROM GREATEST TO LEAST BUT I DON'T KNOW WHAT THE ANSWER IS SO I NEED HELP.
8/4 7/4 5/4
You have them in correct order.
since 8/4 is equal to 2/1 =2
since 7/4 is equal to= 1 3/4
since 5/4 is equal to = 1 1/4
Then the correct order is:
1) 8/4
2) 7/4
3) 5/4
To put these numbers in order from greatest to least, you can follow these steps:
1. Start by comparing the whole numbers (numerators) of the fractions: 8, 7, and 5.
2. Since 8 is the greatest, it comes first.
3. Next, compare the fractions with a common denominator (denominator of 4): 8/4, 7/4, and 5/4.
4. In this case, you are comparing fractions with the same denominator, so you can directly compare the numerators.
5. The fractions with the greatest numerators are 8/4 and 7/4. Since 8/4 is greater than 7/4, it comes next.
6. Finally, the fraction with the smallest numerator is 5/4, so it comes last.
Therefore, putting the numbers in order from greatest to least: 8/4, 7/4, 5/4.
