To compare the numbers \(5 \frac{3}{8}\), \(4 \frac{7}{10}\), and \(4.81\), we can convert them all to decimal form.
-
Convert \(5 \frac{3}{8}\): \[ 5 \frac{3}{8} = 5 + \frac{3}{8} = 5 + 0.375 = 5.375 \]
-
Convert \(4 \frac{7}{10}\): \[ 4 \frac{7}{10} = 4 + \frac{7}{10} = 4 + 0.7 = 4.7 \]
-
The number \(4.81\) is already in decimal form.
Now we have:
- \(5.375\)
- \(4.7\)
- \(4.81\)
Now, let's put these in order from greatest to least:
- \(5.375\) (which is \(5 \frac{3}{8}\))
- \(4.81\)
- \(4.7\) (which is \(4 \frac{7}{10}\))
So, the order from greatest to least is:
- \(5 \frac{3}{8}\)
- \(4.81\)
- \(4 \frac{7}{10}\)
