would you change these into percents?
Try dividing the numerator by the denominator for each fraction then put them into order.

You don't necessarily have to change them into decimals, but if changing them makes it easier for you, then that will work. Do you know how to change them to decimals??
what is easier?
eh
Well neither one is really complicated. If you leave them in fraction form, an easy way to compare fractions is to cross multiply. \[\frac{ 1 }{ 2 } \frac{ 2 }{ 3 }\] Cross-multiplying would have us diagonally multiply. So you multiply one and three. So we give the first fraction a value of three. The other fraction would be two times two, giving us four. This is a fairly easy method, but since you have a larger list I think it would be better to convert to fractions. To convert to decimals, just divide the numerator by the denominator. Example: 5/8 = .625 Hope I helped! :)
