Identify the ascending numerical order of these fractions and decimals: 7/9

Question

, 2/3
, 0.8, 0.857, 0.833.

Answer 1

To arrange the given fractions and decimals in ascending numerical order, we can convert them all into decimal form for easier comparison:

• \( \frac{2}{3} = 0.6667 \) (approximately)
• \( \frac{7}{9} = 0.7777 \) (approximately)
• \( 0.8 \)
• \( 0.833 \)
• \( 0.857 \)

Now we can list them in decimal order:

1. \( \frac{2}{3} \approx 0.6667 \)
2. \( \frac{7}{9} \approx 0.7777 \)
3. \( 0.8 \)
4. \( 0.833 \)
5. \( 0.857 \)

So, the ascending order of the fractions and decimals is:

\[ \frac{2}{3}, \frac{7}{9}, 0.8, 0.833, 0.857 \]
