Easy to do - just convert to fractions by simply dividing.
1/10 = .10
1/6 = .1666
1/4 = .25
3/10 = .30
1/3 = .33
3/8 = .375
1/2 = .50
3/5 = .60
3/4 = .75
4/5 = .80
7/8 = .875
9/10 = .90
I've corrected my error. (*trying to rush the answer).
Good luck in your classes,

I agree with Mitch, except I think the last 3 should be in this order:
4/5, 7/8, 9/10
The way to put these in order is to convert them to fractions.
4/5=.8
7/8=.875
9/10=.9
