crispyrat:

ok so what do u think so far?

vybez:

b = a , a =c

vybez:

?

crispyrat:

so u think a=3/9 and then b=1/5 and c=0.2? well ok 0.2 is the same as 2/10 or 1/5 is 1/5 bigger or smaller than 1/4?

crispyrat:

another way to think about is 1/5=0.2 and 1.4=0.25 so which one is bigger?

vybez:

1/5 is bigger-

crispyrat:

0.2>0.25 are u sure??

vybez:

idek.

crispyrat:

if is 20 greater than 25?

vybez:

no

crispyrat:

so its the same thing which means that is it before or after the 1/4?

vybez:

after-? ,_,

crispyrat:

no cus that would be closer to 1 than 1/4 is so its before-- meaning its either a or b now lets looks at 1/7 and 3/9 have u learned common denominators yet?

vybez:

yeah

crispyrat:

cool so make common denomnaters for 1/7,3/9(1/3),and 1/4

crispyrat:

what is the LCM of 3,4, and 7???

vybez:

um 84?

crispyrat:

yez so do this (1/4)*((3*7)/(3*7)) (1/3)*((4*7)/(4*7)) and (1/7)*((4*3)/(4*3))

vybez:

okai

crispyrat:

ok after that write ur answers down and we can work from there

vybez:

a = 1/7 , b = 0.2 , c = 3/9

crispyrat:

yes! looks good!

vybez:

yay. ty for the help :)
