###### Wiki User

You determine the least to greatest in decimals by using their leftmost unit. The decimal 0.2 is less than 0.3. To determine fractions, you need to first convert them to decimals.

Usually smallest to largest, least to greatest.

think of it as money. you could do that with decimals too.

Convert them to decimals and order them least to greatest.

convert fractions to decimal then just compare them,and then put them in order!:)

Well you first have to look at the decimals and see which one is the least then get to the greatest

You can turn all of them into decimals. If it is an infinite decimal, you can get a common denominator.

Greatest on a list of proper fractions, least on a list of improper fractions.

either turn all ur numbers to fractions or decimals, then put it in order

Get each fraction to have a common denominator, and then sort the fractions from least to greatest based on the numerators.

Convert all the rational numbers to order into equivalent fractions with the same denominator; then they can be ordered by putting the numerators in order from least to greatest. ------------ You can also convert all the numbers to decimals ... this is actually a special case of "equivalent fractions".

All you have to do is convert either the fractions to decimals or the decimals to fractions. If you do not know lets say what one sixth is, just divide 6 by 100 on a calculator and round it. 100/6=16.6666666 so just round to 16.6, but since 100= 1 in decimals to fractions write it 0.16. hope i helped! Seventh grade intensified mathematician PS this math is for fifth and sixth grader and if you didn't know the answer you could have looked in your math textbook.

It's impossible to list all fractions, because there are no least or greatest fractions. In addition, between any two fractions, there's another fraction (for example, the average of the two functions).

The easiest way it to convert them all to decimals. Carry out the repeating decimals to an equal number of places. Then it is easy to put them in order.

You order decimals from least to greatest by looking at the whole number and seeing which whole number is bigger. If the whole numbers are the same you look in the tenths place and see

The order of these fractions from least to greatest is 2/5, 2/3, and 3/4.

you have to find like denominators and then you order them from least to greatest by there numerators

The numbers from least to greatest are: 2 over 10, 1/2, 0.6 and 0.9 (which is equal to 9 over 10). Convert all the fractions to decimals to compare.

Here are the decimals from least to greatest : 2.01, 2.1, 2.11, 12.1
