Well we can look at all these as a decimal

three tenths = 3/10 = .30
three fifths = 3/5 = .60

so (following that way of thinking about it) which of your options fall between .30 and .60?

Well I can finish from my decimal point of view I suppose...

so

like I said we're looking for which choice is between .30 and .60

Lets look at your last answer choice

two tenths = 2/10 = .20

That's not between those 2...

follow that and tell me which choice falls between .30 and .60
