I have a question too that is on the same test. I need help ordering the numbers from least to greatest:
0.42, -1/2, 11/20, -0.51
0.42, -1/2, 11/20, -0.51

or
change them to decimals.

change them to decimals.
Thanks again Ms. Sue
Ms. Sue, I made the decimals into fractions. What do you think?:
0.42 = 42/100
-0.51 = -51/100
1/2
11/20
Now how do i list them?
0.42 = 42/100
-0.51 = -51/100
1/2
11/20
Now how do i list them?
