A pattern calls for three different fabrics.

Fabric A: 3 7/8 yards

Fabric B: 3 1/5 yards

Fabric C: 9/3 yards

To determine the order of the fabrics from least to greatest, we need to convert all measurements to decimals or improper fractions for easy comparison.

1. **Fabric : 3 7/8 yards
- Convert to decimal: \(3 + \frac{7}{8} = 3 + 0.875 = 3.875\) yards

2. **Fabric B**: 3 1/5 yards
- Convert to decimal: \(3 + \frac{1}{5} = 3 + 0.2 = 3.2\) yards

3. **Fabric C**: 9/3 yards
- Convert to decimal: \(9 \div 3 = 3\) yards

Now we have:
- Fabric A: 3.875 yards
- Fabric B: 3.2 yards
- Fabric C: 3 yards

Ordering these from least to greatest:
- Fabric C (3 yards)
- Fabric B (3.2 yards)
- Fabric A (3.875 yards)

Thus, the correct order from least to greatest is **C, B, .

The answer is:
**d. C, B,
