Explanation:

Step1: Compare the fractions

We have the fractions for each sport: Track has $\frac{5}{11}$, Soccer has $\frac{4}{11}$, and Tennis has $\frac{2}{11}$. To order them from most to least, we compare the numerators since the denominators are the same.

• $\frac{5}{11}$ (Track) is greater than $\frac{4}{11}$ (Soccer) because $5 > 4$.
• $\frac{4}{11}$ (Soccer) is greater than $\frac{2}{11}$ (Tennis) because $4 > 2$.

So the order from most to least is Track, Soccer, Tennis.

Step2: Match with the options

Now we check the options:

• Option 1: track, tennis, soccer – Incorrect order.
• Option 2: soccer, track, tennis – Incorrect order.
• Option 3: track, soccer, tennis – Correct order (matches our comparison: Track (most), Soccer, Tennis (least)).
• Option 4: tennis, track, soccer – Incorrect order.

Answer:

track, soccer, tennis (the third option in the list, assuming the options are presented as: 1. track, tennis, soccer; 2. soccer, track, tennis; 3. track, soccer, tennis; 4. tennis, track, soccer)
