Well, what i do with a problem like this, first you need to make each of these into a pizza.
Once you make each of them into a pizza, look at each fraction. Which has the most pieces, and which has the least?
There are two easy ways to help you solve these problems.
One is to change all of the fractions to fractions with the same denominator.
2/3, 5/6, 8/15
20/30, 25/30, 16/30
Or change them to equivalent decimals
2/3, 5/6, 8/15
0.67, 0.83, 0.53
I used your way, and I found that 8/15 has the most pieces, and 2/3 has the least.
Ok, now we have to list the fractions from least to greatest.
Is it 8/15, 5/6, and 2/3?
No, that is not an answer choice. Try again.
Warrior's way didn't work for you.
Try my way.
Sorry, I miss-calculated. Is it 8/15, 2/3, and 5/6?
Yup, Good Job! :) Your Learning :)
Thank You for your help guys :)
