greatest to least put these in the right order?
1/3 3/4 2/5 0.5 0.09
Thank you
First, change all of them to decimals or equivalent fractions. It is probably easiest to convert the fractions to decimals.
YOU ARE WRONG MS.SUE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! 3/4 1/3 2/5 0.09 0.5 BAM that's the answer

Sammy ate 3/8 of a pizza, and Betty ate 1/8 of the same pizza. What fraction of the pizza did Sammy and Betty eat?
order the numbers from least to greatest, -6,8,-9,13
To order these numbers from greatest to least, we can use two methods: comparing the fractions numerically, or converting the fractions and decimals into a common format, such as decimals or fractions, and then comparing them.
Method 1: Comparing Fractions Numerically
1/3, 3/4, and 2/5 are fractions. To compare fractions, we need to find a common denominator. In this case, the least common denominator is 60, which is a multiple of 3, 4, and 5.
Now, let's convert each fraction to an equivalent fraction with a denominator of 60:
1/3 = 20/60
3/4 = 45/60
2/5 = 24/60
Now, we can order them from greatest to least:
45/60 (3/4) > 24/60 (2/5) > 20/60 (1/3)
Method 2: Converting to Decimals
To order these numbers using decimals, we can convert the fractions into decimals and then compare them to the given decimal.
1/3 ≈ 0.333
3/4 ≈ 0.75
2/5 = 0.4
0.5 (given decimal)
0.09 (given decimal)
Now, let's order them from greatest to least:
0.75 (3/4) > 0.5 > 0.4 (2/5) > 0.333 (1/3) > 0.09
Therefore, the numbers in order from greatest to least are:
3/4, 0.5, 2/5, 1/3, 0.09
