in which set would
2/5, 15/36, and 24,12 be placed and why
set A = 1/4, 7/25, 5/8, 3 3/5
set B = 2/3, 4/7, 11/12, 1/9, 34/18

To determine in which set the numbers 2/5, 15/36, and 24/12 would be placed, we need to look at each set and compare the given numbers.
In Set A:
1/4, 7/25, 5/8, 3 3/5
In Set B:
2/3, 4/7, 11/12, 1/9, 34/18
Let's compare them with the given numbers:
2/5: This number is between 1/4 and 5/8. It is smaller than 5/8 and larger than 1/4. Therefore, it should be placed in Set A.
15/36: This number can be simplified to 5/12. It is smaller than 5/8 and larger than 1/4. Therefore, it should also be placed in Set A.
24/12: This number can be simplified to 2. It is larger than all the numbers in both sets. Therefore, it should be placed in Set B.
Based on these comparisons, the numbers 2/5 and 15/36 would be placed in Set A because they fall within the range of numbers given in that set. The number 24/12 would be placed in Set B because it is larger than all the numbers in Set A.
Thus, the numbers 2/5 and 15/36 would be placed in Set A, whereas the number 24/12 would be placed in Set B.
