Question

Identify the ascending numerical order of these fractions and decimals. Keep the original form of each item for your answer. 0.222, 0.225, 1/4 , 1/5 , 1/32

Responses
1/4 , 1/32 , 0.225, 0.222, 1/5 , 1/32

0.33, 0.2, 0.222, 0.225, 1/4

1/32 , 1/5 , 0.222, 0.225, 1/4

2/9 , 9/40 , 1/32 , 1/5 , 1/4 2

Answer 1

To identify the ascending numerical order of the fractions and decimals provided, we should first convert all items to their decimal equivalents for easy comparison. Here are the conversions:

- \( 0.222 \) is \( 0.222 \)
- \( 0.225 \) is \( 0.225 \)
- \( \frac{1}{4} = 0.25 \)
- \( \frac{1}{5} = 0.2 \)
- \( \frac{1}{32} = 0.03125 \)

Now, we can list these values in ascending order:

1. \( \frac{1}{32} = 0.03125 \)
2. \( \frac{1}{5} = 0.2 \)
3. \( 0.225 \)
4. \( 0.222 \)
5. \( \frac{1}{4} = 0.25 \)

Putting this in order, we get:

1. \( \frac{1}{32} \)
2. \( \frac{1}{5} \)
3. \( 0.222 \)
4. \( 0.225 \)
5. \( \frac{1}{4} \)

Thus, the correct ascending numerical order is:

**\( 1/32, 1/5, 0.222, 0.225, 1/4 \)**
