Question

maria created a list by correctly putting a group of fractions, percentages, and decimals in order from least to greatest value. which list could be the one maria created? a 0.24 20% ⅓ 0.35 38% ⅜ b 20% 0.24 ⅓ 0.35 ⅜ 38% c 0.24 ⅓ 20% 0.35 ⅜ 38% d 20% 0.24 ⅓ 0.35 ⅜ 38%

Explanation:

Step1: Convert all to decimals

$20\% = 0.20$, $\frac{1}{3} \approx 0.333$, $\frac{3}{8}=0.375$, $38\%=0.38$

Step2: Order values from least to greatest

Least to greatest: $0.20 < 0.24 < 0.333 < 0.35 < 0.375 < 0.38$

Step3: Match to option lists

Translate back: $20\% < 0.24 < \frac{1}{3} < 0.35 < \frac{3}{8} < 38\%$

Answer:

B. 20% 0.24 1/3 0.35 3/8 38%
