First, let's see all that's bigger than 1:
1.1, 5/3,(that's about 1.6) 2.0,
and we order them: 1.1, 5/3, 2.0,
then, bigger than 0, smaller than 1:
1/2(=0.5), ,0.4,5/8 (that's about 1.6):
ordering:
0.4, 1/2,5/8
And we're left with the one negative number, -2, that's the smallest. Putting everything together:
**-2, ** 0.4, 1/2,5/8 , 1.1, 5/3, 2.0,
The numbers ordered from least to greatest are: -2, 0.4, 2 1 , 8 5 , 1.1, 3 5 , and 2.0. To compare the numbers effectively, they were converted to decimal form. This approach simplifies the ordering process.
