Can you explain how i order fractions from least to greatest
One way is to put them all in a common denominator and then sort then according to numerator.
This is a pre-question. If you post the actual question, you'll get better help
can u put 2/3, 5/6, 3/4 in order from least to greatest.
First put them all in a common denominator. what do you get?
12
Yep - 12 is the common denominator. Now put each fraction in terms of that common denominator; what do you get?
2/12, 3/12, 5/12
2/3 is not the same as 2/12. To go from 2/3 to a common denominator of 12, you have to multiply 2/3 times 4/4 -- you get 8/12.
2/3, 3/4, 5/6 I figured you would have to do something like this. You can do ktklowns, method, or you can just simply see that every fraction is close to one, but as you go higher in number, the value of the fraction gets greater and greater, for example, 2/3, 3/4, 4/5, 5/6, 6/7, 7/8, 8/9, 9/10 are in order from least to greatest.
