Question

Arrange the fractions in ascending order: 7/22, 2/5, 9/24
My answer is: 2/5, 7/22, 9/24
Is this correct?
DrBob222
No.
2/5 = 0.400
7/22 = 0.318
9/24 = 0.375
Check my arithmetic.
B.B.
So then my answer should be 7/22, 9/24, 2/5. Right?
DrBob222
right. What kind of reasoning did you go through to get your first answer. Or perhaps you just didn't think of dividing the numbers on your calculator.
B.B.
I don't know what I was thinking. I actually had divided the numbers I just wrote them down in order wrong. Thanks.
