Identify the numeric order of these fractions from smallest to largest: 3/6 , 1/6 , 5/6 , 2/6

Answer 1

To order the fractions from smallest to largest, we can first convert them to their simplest forms:

• $\frac{3}{6}=\frac{1}{2}$
• $\frac{1}{6}$ (already in simplest form)
• $\frac{5}{6}$ (already in simplest form)
• $\frac{2}{6}=\frac{1}{3}$

Now let's list them:

• $\frac{1}{6}$
• $\frac{1}{3}$
• $\frac{1}{2}$
• $\frac{5}{6}$

Now, putting these in order from smallest to largest, we get:

1. $\frac{1}{6}$
2. $\frac{1}{3}$
3. $\frac{1}{2}$
4. $\frac{5}{6}$

Therefore, the fractions in order from smallest to largest are:

$$\frac{1}{6},\frac{2}{6},\frac{3}{6},\frac{5}{6}$$

Which corresponds to:

$$1/6,2/6,3/6,5/6$$
