Question

order these numbers from smallest to largest: 0.65, 5/8, 2/3, 80%
options:
5/8, 2/3, 0.65, 80%
2/3, 0.65, 5/8, 80%
0.65, 2/3, 5/8, 80%
5/8, 0.65, 2/3, 80%

Explanation:

Step1: Convert to decimals

Convert each number to a decimal:

• \( \frac{5}{8} = 0.625 \)
• \( \frac{2}{3} \approx 0.6667 \)
• \( 80\% = 0.8 \)
• \( 0.65 \) remains \( 0.65 \).

Step2: Order decimals

Order the decimals from smallest to largest:
\( 0.625 \) (\( \frac{5}{8} \)) \( < 0.65 < 0.6667 \) (\( \frac{2}{3} \)) \( < 0.8 \) (\( 80\% \)).

Answer:

D. \( \boldsymbol{5/8, 0.65, 2/3, 80\%} \) (assuming the fourth option is labeled D; if options are unlabeled, "The Right Graph" or "Fourth Option" based on position)
