To put the given numbers (both fractions and decimals) in descending numerical order, let's first convert everything to decimals for easier comparison:

  1. 0.733 (already a decimal)
  2. 0.923 (already a decimal)
  3. 125 (as a decimal, it's 125.0)
  4. 1720 (as a decimal, it's 1720.0)
  5. 1518 (as a decimal, it's 1518.0)

Now, we can order these values from highest to lowest:

  • 1720
  • 1518
  • 125
  • 0.923
  • 0.733

Thus, the descending numerical order is:

1720, 1518, 125, 0.923, 0.733
