Put in order from least to greatest. 12 percent. 1/8. 1.2 1/12
First, change all of these to equivalent decimals.
12% = 0.12
1/8 = 0.125
1.2 = 1.2
1/12 = 0.083
Now you should be able to put them in order. (Hint: think of money.)
I'll be glad to check your answer.
0.083, 0.125, 0.12, 1.2
largest to smallest
0.125, 0.12, 0.01, 1.2
Thank you Tyrese you help me with turning them into decimals then thinking of money
To put the given numbers in order from least to greatest, we can compare them to one another.
1. Let's start with the fraction 1/12. We can convert this fraction into decimal form to make comparison easier. Dividing 1 by 12 gives us approximately 0.0833.
2. Now, let's move on to 12 percent. To compare it with the other numbers, we need to convert it to decimal form. Percent means "per hundred," so 12 percent is equal to 12/100 or 0.12.
3. Next, we have 1/8. Similar to what we did earlier, we can divide 1 by 8 to get 0.125.
4. Finally, we have 1.2. This is already in decimal form, so we don't need to convert it further.
Now, let's compare the numbers we obtained:
- 0.0833 (1/12)
- 0.12 (12 percent)
- 0.125 (1/8)
- 1.2
Putting the numbers in ascending order:
0.0833 (1/12) < 0.12 (12 percent) < 0.125 (1/8) < 1.2
Thus, the order from least to greatest is: 1/12, 12 percent, 1/8, 1.2.
