I need Math help again please?

Question

Order these from least to greatest

question one~ -5 5/6, 6 1/8, -3 1/6, 2 5/12

Question two~ -3 5/8, 2 3/8, -2 3/4, 1 6/7

question three~ 14 2/3, -3 14/15, -2 5/8, 14 4/9

question four~ 20 9/10, -18 8/23, -19 1/2, 16 3/4

The Commas seperate the numbers I really appreciate your help

Answer 1

-5 5/6, -3 1/6, 2 5/12, 6/18

-3 5/8, -2 3/4, 1 6/7, 2 3/8

-3 14/15, -2 5/8, 14 4/9, 14 2/3

-19 1/2, -18 8/23, 16 3/4, 20 9/10

Answer 2

If you are going to be asking us questions like this why don't you get out a calculator and figure out which is larger 2/3 or 4/9, same with all the other questions.
Larger numbers are positive and big then numbers go to zero, then they start going negative and then the numbers will get larger again but this time negative.
Here is the order that will help for most of your answers.
20, 19, 18, 17, 16, 15, 14, 13, 12, 11, 10, 9, 8, 7, 6, 5, 4, 3, 2, 1, 0, -1, -2, -3, -4, -5, -6, -7, -8, -9, -10, -11, -12, -13, -14, -15, -16, -17, -18, -19, -20
Hope that helps.

Answer 3

Instead of asking us to do your homework, why don't you tell us what part of this you don't understand so we can help you understand the concept.

For instance when comparing a negative number to a positive number: The negative is always less.

Always compare the whole part of the number first before you bother with the fraction.

Comparing 4/7 to 3/7. 4/7 is greater because it is like a pie split into seven pieces, but you have 4 instead of 3.

Comparing 3/5 to 3/11. 3/5 is greater because you have the same number of pieces of the pie, but the pie is split into fewer pieces (hence each piece is bigger).

If you have bunch of weird fractions, either convert them to decimal, or compare them to another fraction. For instance:
8/23 is bigger than 8/24 (by just a little) which equals 1/3. So therefore 8/23 is bigger than 1/3 and smaller than 1/2.

This should get you started.

Answer 4

You don't even need common demominators in most cases as the whole numbers aren't even the same and none of the fractions are greater than 1.

ex. 5 and any fraction is less than 6 and any fraction.

So that just leaves the ones with the same whole number for which you can use the common denominator and then choose the one with the larger numerator. (only two on this list and both are obvious ones anyway.)

Answer 5

Focus on the whole numbers, and forget about the fraction portion for right now. The LARGER (-) negative mixed number is the least or smallest one, then you go to the next smaller negative mixed number, etc. Once you get to the (+) positive mixed number, you will go from least to greatest. If you have two mixed numbers with the same whole number, find the common denominator of the fractions and adjust the numerator accordingly. Hope this helps. Good Luck.

Answer 6

Sorry but I am not going to order them for you. I will rather tell you how to do it.

The easiest would be to convert all these fractions to decimal format and then compare them.

For instance 5 5/6 means 5 units + 5/6.
5/6 is 0.83333...

So 5 5/6 is 5.83333
and so on...

Answer 7

OMG, you must be really lazy, right?It looks that you simply want to have your homework completed by someone else?Have you even tried to figure this out?
You must change those fractions into decimal fractions.But then you should do all the rest of the work.

Answer 8

dont bother with the fractions...just pay attention to the whole numbers...dont forget about the negitives and positives!!

Answer 9

Not gonna give you the answers, just use the least common denominators.

Answer 10
