Question

write the numbers in order from least to greatest.
3/7, 0.45, 4/9

Answer 1

To compare the numbers \( \frac{3}{7} \), \( 0.45 \), and \( \frac{4}{9} \), let's first convert all of them to decimal form:

1. \( \frac{3}{7} \approx 0.4286 \) (by dividing 3 by 7)
2. \( 0.45 \) is already in decimal form.
3. \( \frac{4}{9} \approx 0.4444 \) (by dividing 4 by 9)

Now, we can compare the decimal values:

- \( \frac{3}{7} \approx 0.4286 \)
- \( 0.45 \)
- \( \frac{4}{9} \approx 0.4444 \)

Putting these in order from least to greatest:

1. \( \frac{3}{7} \approx 0.4286 \)
2. \( 0.45 \)
3. \( \frac{4}{9} \approx 0.4444 \)

So the order from least to greatest is:

\[ \frac{3}{7}, 0.45, \frac{4}{9} \]
