1/4,3/4,1/6,7/10
Give the answer fractions in ascending order
You can do this either of two ways. You could change all of the fractions to equivalent fractions with a common denominator.
Or you could change them to decimals.
1/4 = 0.25
3/4 = 0.75
1/6 = 0.17
7/10 = 0.7
To arrange fractions in ascending order, you need to compare their values and place them from least to greatest. Let's order the fractions you provided:
1/4, 3/4, 1/6, 7/10
Step 1: Find a common denominator.
To compare fractions, it's easier if they have the same denominator. In this case, we can use 20 as a common denominator for all the fractions. Multiply the numerator and denominator of each fraction by the necessary factor to obtain this common denominator:
1/4 = 5/20
3/4 = 15/20
1/6 = 3/20
7/10 = 14/20
Step 2: Arrange the fractions in ascending order.
Now that we have the fractions with a common denominator, we can compare their numerators and arrange them from least to greatest:
3/20, 5/20, 14/20, 15/20
Step 3: Simplify (if desired).
If you want to simplify the fractions, you can divide the numerator and denominator by their greatest common divisor:
3/20 = 3/20
5/20 = 1/4
14/20 = 7/10
15/20 = 3/4
So, the fractions in ascending order are: 3/20, 1/4, 7/10, 3/4.
